Weird but awesome things you can do with an iPhone?

[dontwalkhand]

Now that most of us have a pocket computer in our hands, known otherwise as an iPhone or iPod touch, what are some cool things that you can do with an iPhone? I found a few .

Diagnose your car I already do this one with a kit from Kiwi, and it works great.

Remote Control I do not do this, but I thought it was cool, it must be annoying to plug in the device everytime I want to control something, so it seems a little counter-intuitive.

Unlock and start your car and disarm the alarm, I am thinking about getting this installed in my car, but I really don't need it.

Does anyone know of other cool and weird things exist for it, like that heartbeat monitor that was shown during the iOS 3 intro?

It makes phone calls! Seriously. Its an iPod that can make phone calls. Who thought this was possible 10 years ago?

Apple did.

I can use the Verizon FiOS TV application and without plugging anything in control the STB.

Does the alarm work over an Ad-Hoc Wireless connection?

The diagnosis does not surprise me. My only question is: isn't the software available for laptops more developed, feature-rich for this type of functionality?

Apple did.

Another one of the thousands of faults of MacRumors users: answering rhetorical questions.

You can check your heart rate using the instant heart rate application. Good when execrising to see if you hit the max burn zone.

Or conversely, it's a phone that has an iPod in it

Viper Smart Start sucks. Don't waste your money. Terrible customer service, the device doesn't work half the time. ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER. Terrible.
