Sometimes the hotels dont' actually have the service, it is a third- party provider and they must have a deal where they provide the gear etc. don't know exactly how that works, but yeah, a scam. Some hotels do provide free access and so scan about when your at a hotel and you might be surpr

I thought I read that some airlines are offering in-flight wifi now, of course for a 'nominal' fee. It still annoys me that hotels and such bilk people for wifi access from their rooms. Last CSUN I paid $13/day just to get internet access. Smells like pure profit to me. CB Chris Hofstader wrot

Just a super quickie correction here; in that one can actually have wifi on while the IPhone is in Airplane mode. In settings wifi is located right after airplane mode, so it's easy to turn one off while enabling the other… HTH and have a terrific day / weekend!… Smiles, CQ :) --- Vie

Hi Chris, Thanks for that link. I didn't know there were Apple Knowledge Base instructions for turning VoiceOver Off on the iPhone 3GS. When I tried the iPhone 3GS and VoiceOver for the first time in the Apple Store, I stuck on the gesture for scrolling down to the accessibility screen (

Turning the iPhone to Aircraft mode will turn off all wireless activity including the phone. If you want Blue Tooth, WiFi or 3G, though, I think the phone needs to be on as well. On Jul 30, 2009, at 12:37 PM, william lomas wrote: > > i think the phone and PDA functions are all as one but I c

So you're asking about whether you can disable incoming/outbound calling but still used the other features? If so then you are probably talking about 'airplane mode' which turns off the wireless functions of your phone. You can also turn wifi back on in airplane mode but you can't do bluetooth
