Aussie journos, handhelds at the Oval Office

My husband, Tom Brune, covers Washington for Newsday. He was at the White House on March 7, when Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard arrived, accompanied by the Aussie press corps. As the reporters waited to enter the Oval Office, one of the Aussies trained what appeared to be a smart phone on a colleague. The colleage, looking into the hand-held device, said "We are here next to the Rose Garden waiting to go into the Oval Office..." (or something to that effect). Tom said they appeared to be documenting every step for their news organization.
