VoIP Blocks

Do they block VoIP because of interference to the equipment? That's why they block cell phones now.

Re: VoIP Blocks

I can't see why VoIP would interfere and other uses of internet wouldn't, though...

Though, I suppose if you're using a VoIP handset, they wouldn't be able to tell if you were using VoIP (permitted) or cell-phone (banned)... That could be an issue.

Funny guy! No, it's because if everyone could talk cheaply the whole plane would sound like a stock exchange floor.

people aren't going to spend $5/minute on the airfones if they can bring another thing to talk cheaper. its all about revenue protection, not the instruments lol.

in reality VOIP is a money loss for the airlines.
and cell phones are the same thing.

one other reason we do not use wireless devices on the airplanes is that the airlines have not changed everything over to DIgital. Most of the airlines use Analog communications to and from the airport.

I believe the reason that they took out AIRCELL out of the airplanes is that there is no more analog cell phone usage in the usa. Hince no aircells wich were analog.

Am i correct?
