The report was published in 2003. We have different phones now. Executive summary, page 'v' has the details.
Thanks. I had read that a long time ago, but it did not show up in my search.
I believe the number one flaw with that study was they could not reproduce the issues on a single commercial jet with actual cellphones. In short, everything was all turned up to the max in the study.
I believe the only known incident on a plane had to do with a laptop turned on before takeoff or landing (can't remember which) that appeared to interfere with the cockpit instruments. Boeing actually bought the guys laptop, but was unable to reproduce the issue. (I apologize for not having the actual reference.)
