BizReport.com: It won't be long before gamblers are shooting dice while queued up waiting to see their favorite comedian. Or playing poker and roulette under a poolside umbrella. Even a trip to the buffet will no longer keep casino patrons from playing slots. A law signed last month by Gov. Kenny Guinn made Nevada the first U.S. state to approve the use of wireless, handheld gambling devices at its hotel-casinos.
It's a small step forward for casino companies aching to offer Internet-based gambling who are watching offshore competitors reap huge profits from a business that federal law bars them from entering.
Joseph Asher, Managing Director of Cantor G&W holds an HP PDA with a roulette wheel program, one of many gambling programs available, Thursday, June 23, 2005 in New York City. Nevada has become the first state to approve the use of wireless, handheld gambling devices at its hotel-casinos.
