"...it'd be nice if it handled SMS as well, but obviously Apple's not going to let that happen." Why not? I figure this with SMS is phase 2.

Maybe apple wont but it sounds like an intriguing project for an android developer...

I'm pretty sure this app was a concept from April Fools day last year. Still, pretty neat that they made it a reality.
I think a more appropriate app might be something you can run in the background while doing anything else that allowed a view of the camera somewhere on the screen. Then you could do anything you wanted as you walked and still see where you were going.

Now all we need is a swiveling camera on the back that detects the direction of the users movement using data from GPS/accelerometer/compass and changes the view angle accordingly, that way we'll never have to look away from the phone!

am i the only one who thinks this is rather stupid?
who actually holds the phone vertically while writing or reading? i imagine i'd mostly just see pictures of the sidewalk 10 feet in front of me...

no, you're not. i think it would be easier to just keep looking up every few seconds instead of holding this in front of your face. imagine how stupid you gotta look using this. oh well, iphone eye candy.

But the point is that you wont hold your phone down, but instead hold your head up high and proud that you are that much of a tool.

I meant that as a reply to Arthur

It's not free. It's 99 cents.
