Had one last year that never left my sight during the two weeks I was there; referenced it many times on different casino floors with no problems (was primarily checking for free wifi and a few notes I had on my machine.
Next month will be there with the same iPad; will access notes, locations of positive play machines; guess I could have scanned copies of strategy cards on there to look at, but I will have the originals on hand and in plain sight, so that doesn't make much sense.
Would agree with you if you used it as a "computing device", as defined by Nevada gaming statutes (a variation of this question that Bob Dancer's already committed to discussing next Thursday, I believe); or if you used something like "FaceTime" or the video cameras inside the casino. Of course, there are boatloads of iphones out there, which function almost the same as iPads, and could do even more damage at a blackjack table (rumors ONLY of which I have heard).
BUT if I should get so lucky that I hit a big hand next month, I will snap away and share with on whatever devices I have, just like last year, and would not expect a problem; else I would willing to be a test case!!
