Gregory NG has posted very interesting article about Apple iPhone future feature. His idea is to start using his iPhone as a Barcode Scanner, not bad, isn’t it.
This is what he told about his idea on iPhoneMatters.com…

Imagine going to any store in the world, seeing something you like and then telling everyone who matters to you that you want it. Now imagine that instead of having to write down the store, the product name, or color choice, you simply use the camera function in your iPhone, scan the barcode on the item, and it auto-populates to your .mac wish list.
That’s not all. Imagine it marrying your wish list data with the physical locations of the retail store, pulling up the location in the Google map function in your iPhone.

He thinks that this idea will benefits Apple company, as the retailer, and Apple iPhone user, as the potential buyer.

By matching up your iPhone ID with its built-in data capture device (the camera) you can distribute free content to your mobile device without resorting to Text codes and websites. What about while waiting in line to get into a movie, you can scan a barcode on a movie poster and the trailer downloads to your iPhone for you to watch through the video iPod function? How about walking by a restaurant and scanning a barcode on the door pulling up customer reviews instantly. Or scanning a code in a museum and downloading a walking tour audio clip.

Probably very brave thoughts for this moment, but, who knows, maybe in the near future in could become reality. All stores will have products with labels “Made for iPhone”, and there won’t be a real hardcopy money anymore. All purchases will be made through your powerfull iPhone’s Mac OS system.
