Thanks Dorn and Bill for the info. At this time I am inclined to disallow electronic dice unless someone has an impairment where that would help them.
I did some research on a couple of popular dice rolling applications and it seems that some of them have achieved true randomness (which was my issue with them). However, I still think that bringing electronic dice to a large tournament setting could potentially cause confusion or start a dispute among players. In the future, if I gain more experience with them, I may feel differently.
In the larger gaming and world there are some really cool things being done where they are pairing the physical and electronic worlds and I fully expect, and hope, this to come to backgammon.
