Im Interested and wouldn't mind a pair myself ...However as far as the applicability in Poker...Any live games I play they do not allow electronic devices at the table so I am positive that even if you were able to use them effectively in theory that they would not be allowed.


So curious, why do they allow I-Pods/Ipads and such and such at the wsop? Are they not consider'd electronic devices? I swear I am being serious (as stupid as the question actually seems)

Those are pretty cool. But i dont see you being able to use them in any serious game or tourney.

They don't mind you having devices to listen to music or connect to the internet. It is the possibility of communicating with other players at the table they want to prevent. So no phone calls and no text messaging if you are in a hand.

But wouldn't Ipods these days do the same? Ipod touch's I believe have the ability to text other people. I could be mistaken though.

You know what I mean, It got presented in the OP as something real.

I like the concept ...not for playing poker now if they can make a motorcycle riding freindly version . that has some angst as opposed to looking like a dork than Im in.
