Would you care to explain this statement? You commented that a poorly-shielded laptop could affect flight instruments. Assuming that this laptop has its wifi transmitter (and any other transmitter) disabled, isn't it just going to put out more radiation/generate a larger field than an iPod?

Also, it sounds like you have the numbers that you asked me for. Could we see them please?
