I thikn it woudl naturally follow that you only tell offenders to put away the IPOD. The rule isn't that some people can have it and some can't; the rule is NOBODY will delay the game.

Just being devils advocate here, but do feel the same way about cell phones? If someone is keeping up with the action but talking away for 15 minutes on a cell, is that worthy of a talking to by the floor? It's not delaying the game at all, just annoying the players who have to listen to to it.

Here we have a "no cell phone use at the table" rule (wether you're in the current hand or not), so it's not an issue that the floor has to deal with at all which is nice.
