Data Only is the way to go. WiFi, web browsing, email etc but ban VOIP. Make them use the seat back phones if someone needs to make a call. What is so vitally important that an email won’t do? Learn to schedule better. And just wait until you can RECIEVE calls on a plane. Ugh! I’ll stop flying.

I DO NOT want airlines making cell phone calling available on flights. I DO want data capability for email, web browsing, etc. (but not for VOIP).

I just want to be able to use data on the plane.

Again, depends on cost. At $4 USD per minute, no way. If the calls were affordable, of course.

Now that airlines are offering WiFi, VOIP will be the new in flight call system.

This will completely circumvent their proprietary calling system and give consumers affordable phone calls. I guarantee that when this happens, EVERYONE will be on the phone in flight.
