Has anyone tried to use a cell phone on a airplane during a flight?

I have flown several times since 9/11. Twice going to and from New York and Oregon and several flights to Arizona to Oregon and back. In each flight I would turn on my cell phone to see if I could get a connection. I always got no service available to appear on my screen.
About a year ago I read on the internet that in order for people to use cell phones on flying aircraft the airplanes would need to have a special antenna installed. This has not begun to happen yet.

So my question would be. If you can not get service on your cell phone while flying in an airplane. On 9/11 how did the people on board those doomed aicraft manage to use their cell phone to call out to their loved ones? I’m not counting the people who used the available at great cost aircraft phones just the ones who are said to have used their cell phones.
Just one of the holes in the vast 9/11 story.

This phone is Java enabled, and has Java, and supports apps, but Straight Talk disables this feature. This is my quick review as requested by users. You can access e-mail, but only via the web. Unfortunately you cannot play videos on this phone. I give it a 4/5

What style cell phone is good for an older person?

I got my mom a cell phone about 2 years ago to bring her up to the technology world and finally have a cell phone. I didnt realize when I got her the phone that the numbers are really hard to see and the key pad is really small for her. I have her set up with Alltel and I know she is due for a new phone soon. Can anyone tell me what kind of phone has bigger numbers and a bigger screen to see who is calling?

What kind of cell phone offers the ability to just buy phone cards each month?

I need the cheapest cell phone possible. Both my home phone and cell phone aren’t working and I need something that doesn’t include a plan or long sign up process. I’ve heard that there’s cheap cell phones you can buy, or even use your own, then just buy minutes as you use them each month. Where can I find something like this and what is it exactly?

Why you need a cellphone

What is the best way to convince my step mom to buy me a new cell phone.  I really want one but not as much as I need one.  If I had a dollar for every time I was stranded some where and needed to call some one, I would be rich enough to bathe in my money. My birthday is coming up along with Christmas and it’s the first thing on both lists.  Some one please help me.
