The few times I've used Airfone (not more recently than maybe four months ago) I've been disappointed in its quality -- very poor S/N, much like what we've come to expect from the worst long distance connections. Handset volume inadequate to compete with cabin noise compounded the problem. The technology is amusing, though, and would be useful if it were better implemented. My first Airfone call was to the cellular jeep-phone of a friend en route to meet me at the airport....
