as they are poretz geder and therefore everyone's tefillos are less accepted, see <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-E-WZdrmYXSE/UE8W5zRk_8I/AAAAAAAAFRw/pAGXb2MZQzE/s1600/iphone+minyan.jpg">http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-E-WZdrmYXSE/UE8W5zRk_8I/AAAAAAAAFRw/pAGXb2MZQzE/s1600/iphone+minyan.jpg</a><br>
<br>The Tzlach that is quoted is talking about sinners in general, why should we single out iPhone users? According to the Tzlach you shouldn't daven in a minyan with any sinners. <br><br>Do we really pasken like this Tzlach any time during the year? Do we ever find that people set up minyanim of tzadikim and don't let sinners join? Don't we specifically say on Yom Kippur night "anu matirim l'hispallel im havaryanim"<br>
