@Kricket: A little redundancy (and some redundancy) never hurt. Rest assured that your message has come through loud and clear.

@Crazysamz:

yeah - the n95 and n82 have built-in accelerometers built-in

if this is freeware - i might just have to give it a shot - if for nothing more than novelty - but i agree with workingonyourinvoice - depending on just how sensitive the app is, i can see it answering messages on its own while youre walking...

The other day i was imagining shaking my phone left or right to see the previous or subsequent contact then up or down to dial.

Does that Nokia have an accelerometer built in or is it using the camera to detect movement??

that's a nice way to get all the juice out of accelerometer... apple should take some hints for the iphone... and hopefully now with 3rd party apps people will let their imagination fly.
but still, nokia rules, finland rules... apple... nothing against them, really nice products...but there's still something missing.

What about keylock (which appears to be disabled whilst viewing the new msg). Definitely a problem when trying the obligatory Will It Blend (tm).

Can it mash potatoes? Can it do the twist?

Sounds like a fun gimmick, but honestly, I can just see a lot of "hey I sent you a text did you get it?"
"no, my pocket must have read it while I was walking the dog and forgot to tell me about the new message."
