There are documented cases where avionics issues could have been caused by consumer electronics - I seem to remember some have been quoted in other threads on this subject in these forums. If you can't find them I'll see if I can find them for you.
That's not really the point though. If we're talking about changing the rules then whether there are cases under the *existing* rules isn't the issue - we don't know how many cases there would be if devices *were* allowed as we haven't got a track record of operating under those rules to study.
