The rules say you can't connect a portable computing device to the joystick port. A PIC is not a portable computing device, by my definition, and thus is legal. Q&A 1282 supports this assertion. The reason I quoted R66, which is about the Dashboard port, was to point out what their definition of a "portable computing device" is. Am I still missing something? It looks legal to me.
