WARNING: The FAA requires that wireless operations be suspended
before boarding the plane. The easiest way to disable wireless
operations is by unchecking the Enable 802.11 Wireless Radio box in
the Motion Dashboard. The wireless LED on the Tablet PC front panel,
marked as shown here, is off when wireless communications
are disabled.
WARNING: Do not transport the Lithium ion batteries used in your
Tablet PC in checked baggage. You may take up to two spare batteries
in carry-on luggage in addition to the one in your Tablet PC.
Transporting batteries in check baggage or transporting more than two
spare batteries is a violation of transportation regulations.
