Re: FAA institutes new bans on laptop and gadget batteries on planes
Somehow this must have been the only line I missed in the whole article. I think I was more curious as to if this has been posted on here than me actually finishing the article in full rather than skimming, just to get the word out.
I guess it's not too much of a downer, then.Samsung PN60F8500 PDP / Anthem MRX 720 / Klipsch RC-62 II / Klipsch RF-82 II (x2) / Insignia NS-B2111 (x2) / SVS PC13-Ultra / SVS SB-2000 / Sony MDR-7506 Professional / Audio-Technica ATH-R70x / Sony PS3 & PS4 / DirecTV HR44-500 / DarbeeVision DVP-5000 / Panamax M5400-PM / Elgato HD60Comment

Re: FAA institutes new bans on laptop and gadget batteries on planes
it's just another lame ticky tack rule. I flew to honolulu and back over christmas, so of course the terror threat was elevated. While taking off your shoes and hobbling through the line holding your beltless pants up, the stuff just seemed stupid. I like how you can't carry more than 3 oz of a liqud substance in one bottle, but can fill a whole clear ziplock bag with the same liquid in numerous 3 oz bottles, and take it in a carry on bag. Like a terrorist could just combine his explosive shampoo in his shoe while on the plane. Everyone is either listening to their own ipod, sleeping, or playing tetris on a laptop anyways.Last edited by bkfount; 01-03-2008, 10:37 AM.Comment

Re: FAA institutes new bans on laptop and gadget batteries on planes
I just came back on a plane yesterday and had my ipod, laptop, 360, and cell phone with me all as carry on stuff and no one said anything to me. I guess the 360 might not have lithium in it so it wouldn't matter but I didn't even hear a warning or see a sign about a lithium limit anywhere.Originally posted by BlzerLet me assure you that I am a huge proponent of size, and it greatly matters. Don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)Comment
