I just thought of something while reading this article. Can the accelerometer on the iPhone be used as a Gyro like real car navigation? Or does it only show orientation of device? If it can act like a Gyro they are way further ahead of any phone maker as the GPS would be incredible more accurate for dead rekoning.
