Well its a silly rule that the FAA needs to updated. Cell phones and small personal electronics pose no risk of interfering with communications or avionics. If someone wanted to use something on board that could, it would have to make it through security and its pretty easy to sneak tapping on a phone past flight attendants.

I don't think there hasn't been a single substantiated case of interference from cell phones.

It is frustrating to comply with a rule that you know is pointless. I'm not justifying Baldwins behavoir, but for someone who travels a lot like myself, it is annoying.
