In all seriousness, these laws are such a mess, what with smartphones being more and more common. Even in Australia there are different laws for each state. For example, using an iPhone with the tomtom GPS app- possibly legal in NSW, completely illegal in VIC (according to a vicroads worker, “a phone is a phone and you can only use it as that” or some such nonsense that ignores reality).
