iPong allows you to play pong wirelessly with a friend using the SMS to control the paddle. useless, but cool

@Jay, iAlertU alerts you by turning on a siren when someone picks up your Mac, and can send you an email with a picture of the thief (if you have an iSight). It can be triggered by typing on the keyboard, moving the mouse, closing the lid, and the SMS. Once the siren is on, even the mute button can’t turn it off. You can activate the alarm with the Apple Remote or with a password.

Hi,

there is also Cinderella (see http://cinderella.de), a mathematics and physics educational software that supports the SMS. See the video at http://youtube.com/watch?v=aM0PrEu-xO8 for a demo of true gravity support in physics simulation.

Also, it can connect to LEGO mindstorms, and we prepared a video showing how to remote-control a LEGO car by tilting a MacBook Pro: http://youtube.com/watch?v=I8VvTENzPGI

When i read SMS, i first thought the app would send you an SMS when someone picks up yr Macbook. Then i read the article and was kinda disappointed. Would be a cool idea though You could also make yr macbook pump up the volume and start an audio file…”help, someone’s stealing me, help… Enjoy , Jay
