Handheld gaming devices have been around Las Vegas gambling palaces since 2006, and now Atlantic City's dozen casinos will have them, too.
Gov. Christie signed legislation Wednesday clearing the way for patrons to play electronic versions of their favorite slot machines and table games on mobile, wireless devices while sitting poolside, relaxing in a lounge, waiting for a restaurant reservation, or roaming around a casino property in Atlantic City.
Those who sponsored the legislation say the addition of the devices - while not a game-changer for Atlantic City, which is enduring fierce internal and external gambling competition - nonetheless brings the resort into the 21st century.
