Nice idea in theory, but not necessarily in practice. How is the cop supposed to know that when I put my hand into my pocket when he (hopefully) reads me my Miranda rights, I do so to reach for my Droid rather than, say, a gun? From that point on, he has a "probable cause" to believe that I am resisting arrest and zap me with a taser or whatever they are using in such situations. So instead of spending a few hours in jail and then being released (been there done that) - I am being zapped or worse and charged with resisting arrest. Hmmm....
