Terry Laskodi remarks that s/he will use the Sony D-5 on planes.  This brings
up a question: can the D-5 legally be used on an airplane?  I'm sure it
falls under the FCC description of a computing device and the FAA and the
airlines have nasty rules about using gizmos that might interfere with the
radio navigation equipment.  (If this topic has already come up, I beg your
pardon.  Please merely send me the answer or a pointer to it.  Thank you.)

B.T.W., I am a satisfied D-5 owner.  It has a few minor problems but the sound
quality beats my late-model Sony Walkman to pieces.  More importantly, there
is no maintenance (head cleaning) and no wear on the medium.
