Inflight Vibrations

Travelers wondering how their lives may change when airlines begin to allow mobile phone use inflight, may take relief from news that passengers on mobile-networked Emirates flights between Dubai and London have developed onboard mobile-phone etiquette. Jaunted reports that a spokesman says that passengers set their phones to vibrate to keep the chitter-chatter down:
