Going through NRT, the security officers at the screening area don't request that I take my iPad and Kindle out but they will always ask if there is a tablet in the bag, I say yes, they remove both items from the bag itself and rescan. So as a habit after 2-3 times of them doing this, I just remember to remove both the iPad and Kindle in NRT only so I'm not delayed at the c/p.
