PDA Assisted Thinking
Just as the Doeberl Cup announced its rules in Mobile Phones/Electronic Devices, news has come in of a player being caught using Pocket Fritz on a PDA during a Dutch League match. The player concerned was rumbled by the arbiter, after going outside for some "fresh air". The player was instantly forfeited and banned from chess playing in or captaining a team in the Dutch League for the next 2 and a half years.

Let's be accurate, Shaun. He was banned from playing or captaining in the Dutch League. Not from chess entirely.
Thanks for the correction. Lazy blogging (ie not reading the article fully) on my part.
