Latest update--and oddity:

Malaysian authorities have just stated that a cell tower on the west coast of Malaysia picked up a roaming signal from the co-pilot's cell phone. It was the only phone to have been detected. Long ago, phone records showed no calls were sent or received from any phones on the plane, but this information indicates that, at least, the co-pilot's phone was on, over a half and hour after the transponder went dark and the plane made a left turn. It reaffirms the westward flight of the plane and the location of the INMARSAT signals.

Naturally, it raises more questions than it answers. Out of 239 phones, only one was turned on? Typically, nearly 30% of passengers forget to turn off their phones. Did the co-pilot just forget, or did he deliberately turn it on during the flight? That could be answered by checking phone towers around the airport while the plane was taxiing for take-off. Clearly, this new information is intriguing, but a lot more digging is needed to understand what it might mean.
