Bottomline, if you (your team) wants to use a phone/iTOuch/iPad/laptop/etc. use it. When you send your team rep up, they can have whatever they want with them. In addition, have them bring your team copy of the rules (this is assuming your team has an updated set of rules, which you should), and make sure the person is ready to pull the rule and update out. If you have that, then the head ref will go over and pull out his rules and confer with you, and it should be fine. Just make sure you're polite with it. There's a reason they came up with the update, and I doubt anyone will run into any more problems because the head refs will probably be notified about this latest update.
