WITH a smartphone in your pocket, you can email on the move. But even the best multitasker will find it tricky to keep an eye on the phone鈥檚 screen as well as the path ahead.
That could change with a new Apple iPhone application called Email 鈥榥鈥� Walk from Phase 2 Media. This package takes a live feed from the phone鈥檚 camera, which is mounted on the rear of the device, to show the user what鈥檚 in front of them as they type.
The text of your email appears as white lettering superimposed on top of the video feed 鈥� and is more than clear enough to read without blocking the view of the path or road ahead.

While reviewers say the software works as advertised, they hope the creators don鈥檛 get carried away. 鈥淚 hope they don鈥檛 come up with Email 鈥榥鈥� Drive,鈥� says one.
