Consider that people these days do stuff like livetweeting, texting, dynamic communication, and internet reference lookup on their phones and it'll look a lot less bad. I'm sure if someone looked at me at Kickoff and saw me typing a tweet about it, it wouldn't look the best.

Disregarding during ceremonies or in the pits, I will often be engrossed in electronics. Why? I update the team twitter constantly. I have the latest standings and scores before they are updated at the competition itself. I text friends at other competitions to ask how it's going. I have scores from other competitions, keeping track of specific robots. While usually this might not look very good, it's useful for us as a team to have someone connected, and I honestly don't see a big problem there.
