I was the youngest umpire in my association my first year, and I'm still the second youngest that I know of, ... please don't accuse us all of being gee-whiz technophiles.
I'm kind of a geek in my own way, but a lot of us also know the right tool for the job. Indicators are engineered specifically for what they do, they don't do anything else, but they do their job damn good!
< Sarcasm > That's why if I were ever going to use a phone as an indicator, I would recommend the Samsung Rugby. It's small and rugged. I've made calls (using bluetooth) with the thing while it was sitting in a pitcher of beer and as it was flying off the dashboard onto the interstate shoulder. Thing is a tough beast! < / Sarcasm >
But I hope the kid gets his iPhone schwacked.
