Passengers able to use gadgets for entire US flights
Aviation regulators have cleared the safe use of mobile devices during take-off and landing for US airlines.
US carriers are expected to let passengers use smartphones, tablets, and e-book readers from gate to gate by the end of the year.
Internet connections for email, web surfing, and downloading will be prohibited below 10,000 feet.
