Were you ever able get a definitive answer from FSDO?

No. Nobody, in or out of FSDO, has ever identified any FAR that would be violated by the operation I proposed. Interesting responses from the FSDOs. In the 6 years since you posed your scenario to the FSDOs, have any of the FARs been changed that might now make use of a handheld GPS during IFR illegal? For that matter, is there anything in the FARs that dictate the equipment the pilot _must_ use during IFR, or the manner in which the pilot must use any of the required and installed equipment? I'm rather hazy on the FARs for IFR but nothing comes to mind.

For example, a VOR approach that lacks a GPS overlay. But a direct clearance does not imply the use of any specific equipment.
