Were I not trying to be less cynical I'd say the plan was the  
brainchild
of the airlines, hoping to continue the $N/minute captive call cost  
from
back-of-the-seat phones.  Surely airline lobbyists don't have that  
much
pull...
Could somebody please explain to me the technology in those  
"skyphones" that makes them unusable for plotting hijacking and  
terrorism?
Of course, the terrorists could not afford to use them, since they  
must save up for retirement...
