Federal Aviation Administration regulations prohibit use of most portable electronic devices aboard aircraft, but they specifically exempt portable voice recorders, hearing aids, heart pacemakers and electric shavers because they don’t give off signals that might interfere with aircraft systems.

The regulations also let airlines independently determine if passengers can use PEDs not specifically mentioned by the rules. An airline must show a device does not interfere with safe operation of the aircraft during all phases of flight. In its oversight capacity, the FAA ensures that the operator complies with regulations by reviewing the results of the carrier’s tests and its analysis of pertinent data.

The FAA has issued guidance to airlines letting passengers turn on most PEDs after the plane reaches 10,000 feet. At a lower altitude, any potential interference could be more of a safety hazard as the cockpit crew focuses on critical arrival and departure duties.

Part of the time you're in the plane, you may be able to use the airline's WI-fi, but there's a pretty stiff charge for the privilege. So it's better just to use the games and other activities that don't require wi-fi, during the times you are allowed to have your device on. And do turn it off when requested, so as to avoid Mr Baldwin's experience!
