Default Will this work in an airplane?

I'm going to be going on a 5 hour flight after I get the phone, will I be able to go online and stuff on it on the flight?

The only way to get internet on a plane is through WiFi.

Tour = no WiFi.

Why not save the battery power and take a book? Or even download a book to the BB?

You can draft a bunch of e-mails and send them when you land.

Do some creative writing or write an autobiagraphy - it will help you get used to the keyboard!

Lol.

After spending $200 on this badboy, I refuse to use anything else to entertain myself for at least a month.

You can put music and movies on it and just watch/listen whatever you got. There's always brick breaker!

download slacker radio and cache a few stations, then download a few games or some movies and that will keep you playing with your device for a while. I would recommend berrywars, its a fun addicting game.

Download a couple of games, I can play bubble Breaker for an hour easily, also brick Breaker can eat up an hour, but heavy use will eat that battery up in 5 hours, you might want to find something extra to bring. or get a second battery.

How big is your memory card? I download so many videos thanks to Bla1ze's site. Just sit back and enjoy, while the passenger next to you sits there in awe. Happens to me all the time.
