The FCC and FAA are considering rule changes that would allow passengers to whip out their cell phones in flight. (Which means you may soon be able to get up 10 minutes after leaving D.C. and call Michael Chertoff to thank him.)

In any case, the feds will likely be listening in:

The DOJ in its comments suggested that it be given the authority to tap an airborne cell phone conversation within a 10-minute time frame if the phones are allowed to be used on planes.
