Because.

I tried using my iBook to access the Internet while flying, through a
Nokia 3600 phone (using Bluetooth between the computer and the phone,
and GPRS to access the Internet). Worked fine.

That's all you could come up with? Personally, I think it's kind of geeky,
but then I don't think "geek" is a dirty word either.

They're lucky they didn't bump into each other.

Why? They had someone in each plane to concentrate on flying, and at least
one other in each plane to concentrate on the laptop. Nothing in the
article said that they were not already trained in formation flying (to deal
with the 100 foot formation portion of the flight).
