GT | Newsroom - Georgia Tech Turns iPhone Into spiPhone

Heard about this on Security Now and thought it was pretty out there.

The short form is the gyro/accelerometer on the iPhone is sensitive enough you can put it on the desk next to someone's keyboard and it'll log what's typed on it by detecting the vibrations.

Only 80% accuracy right now, but I'm sure there'll be a 2.0.
