Tablets In The Strip Club

Strip Club Nation
I recently bought a tablet with a 7" screen. It is not all that much larger than my smartphone which has about a 5" screen, and I have almost never had any issues using the smartphone inside of strip clubs. Most capabilities on both mobile devices are similar. (Only ran into one club in Philly where using a cellphone inside the club was prohibited.)
Has anyone used their tablet in a strip club? Did the club care or not?

I once brought one into a dead club. I decided it was better to not visit that dead club again. If the club doesn't have enough entertainment, it's not worth visiting.
The word "tablet" has really had an evolution in meanings.
First
A flat piece if stone with writing cut into it
Then
A set of sheets of paper fastened at one edge
Then
A small hard piece that dissolves in water
Now
A small touch screen computer
Think about all the times someone might pick it up and run.
When you get lapdances, when you take a piss, when you're distracted by a hot dancer on stage. I don't want to be wondering if someone ran off with my tablet when I wasn't looking. Yeah, if the club is dead or boring, it might come in handy but why bother even visiting?
Maybe you could even text the dancer sitting at another guys table without him Knowing. That might be annoying to have a dancer sitting with you texting someone.
At least two clubs I regularly frequent have "no cell phone use in the club" signs fairly prominently posted on or near the front door, and I've had the rule enforced at one club (they just asked me not to use my phone). The place I visit more frequently says you can go in the lobby if you actually need to make a text or a call.
I can understand the reasoning in the cameraphone era. Dancers might not want their picture taken and/or put on the Internet, while some, er, many, er, ALL patrons probably don't want their picture taken and put on the Internet. I suppose it also cuts down on OTC (not that it doesn't happen anyway).
Only thing is, I wish they'd enforce the rule for dancers as well as customers, as they still are on their phones all the darn time.
Has anybody wandered in with their GoogleGlass?
