Weird suggestion

I wonder why there is not a handheld device for basketball referees to keep track of game stuff, much like the ball strike counter that umpires use. I bet you could design something that could keep track of posession, team fouls, and individual fouls.

How about this: a program for your palm, with all of above, and when you call a foul you pull it out and mark it off. Keep it in your back pocket!

Or what about just keeping it on a small paper notebook with a pen. The times when you need to record stuff would be a dead ball... why not?

Obviously that isn't needed for high level ball, but why not for JV/rec/intermural? Clearly it would be more reliable than questionable scoring tables?
