Gyroscope Gives CellPhones 'Tilt Control'

Paul Stamatiou writes "You can now control cellphone activities by simply tilting it. "If you have a game involving keeping a car on the road, you do that by tilting," says company spokesman Jan Ahrenbring. The tilting technique can also be used to sweep large virtual pages across the phone's screen, which acts as window on the information."

  1. More features I'll never use by Brahmastra · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Here's what I use my cellphone for : Making phone calls. I don't particularly care for playing games with shitty graphics, using awkward controls. I don't particularly care for sending pictures of my beautiful face using a cellphone webcam.. Maybe I talk only from the bathroom. I'm sick of all the features they keep adding to the cellphones. How about giving cellphones a better antenna by default instead?
