I have been alpha testing this app for a while.  Here are some of the uses to 
which I have put the app:

1.  At grocery stores, have someone sighted who may be helping you shop snap a 
picture of each item and record the info associated with the pic; then when you 
get home, scan items with phone so you know what 's what.

2.  Same as above for my wine collection.

3.  Same as above to recognize CD's, etc.

4.  Snap pic of a series of clothes, record descriptions to go with each pic 
and scan clothes with phone.

5.  Have somebody snap a pic of signs at the mall identifying this shop or 
that, then use the app as a sort of internal where am I system.

These are the same folks who brought us the money reader, and without giving 
too much away, they have another cool app on the way.

Here is a link to some info on a new app called the LookTel Recognizer
        This app, once set up, will give you the ability to use your iPhone to 
identify objects that are in your database. So in theory you could load all 
your shirts and put a clear description of each one then when you come back 
later you aim the camera at whatever shirt you pick and it will tell you which 
one it is.
        I haven't downloaded this app yes since it is $10 and I am always 
cautious about buting things like this but it sounds like it could be pretty 
helpful. Just throwing it out there.
