Cam,

This is technically not correct. The prohibition on use of transmission devices technically only applies to devices capable of transmitting a signal - technically a receive only device would not be illegal as it does not fall under the definition of a transmission device. Since IPads, cell phones, etc. are capable of both transmitting & receiving, it's a moot point for the purposes of this discussion.

That said, I agree with the rest of what you posted. Personally I don't see using an IPad white board ap as a big problem in and of itself - the real problem is that because of the many other capabilities of these devices, there's no way to guarantee that they wouldn't be used for a prohibited purpose.
