Hi Ziners,
I take a handheld Solitaire game with me when I travel, it helps pass time
waiting on planes etc. Since it doesn't have a shut off button and just
turns off when not used after several minutes, is it unsafe to play it when
taking off and landing? I've had the flight attendants tell me to turn it
off, I showed one guy that it was a toy game and he said okay, another one
on my last flight said anything with batteries has to be turned off.
Watches have batteries though and what would be the difference between that
and a watch? Just curious, if they tell me to put it away I have to put it
away and end of discussion but I just wondered...
