By Chris Oldroyd, Wednesday, Jul 20, 2011 | Certain cities in the US have started fining walkers on the streets if they are caught texting on their iPhone (or other mobile devices). If you have ever walked down a street while composing a short email or text message, you know how distracting it can be and how unaware you are of where you are and what is going on around you.This is leading to more and more accidents and the new system of fines is meant to make you more aware of the dangers. Earlier this year a woman from Pennsylvania was caught on video whilst walking through a shopping center. She was so engrossed in typing out her message that she fell right into a water feature. Yes this example was quite funny however it could have been a whole lot worse. Pennsylvania is now looking at putting an end Read More

We all know that texting and driving is dangerous, but what about going beyond just sending short text messages, and actually composing and sending emails while driving? I'm voting for "stupid" as the proper adjective to use. iPhone Savior had a report this morning about Lane Roster, a Huntington Beach, California repo man who has taken driving and emailing to an extreme. Mr. Roster decided that he absolutely had to send emails while driving, so he mounted his iPhone on the dash of his car and loaded the Email 'n Walk app [app store], a program that uses a camera view of what's directly ahead of you as the backdrop to a standard email screen. Email 'n Walk, as the name implies, is designed to be used while walking. Roster, in a phone interview with iPhone Savior, stated that "If I can't email and drive or send an occasional text I Read More
Email Driving Becomes Thrill Seeker Sport for One

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA - There's no denying the fact that texting while driving can be a potentially lethal combination. On Wednesday it was that Senators are seeking a nationwide ban to outlaw the sending of text and e-mail messages by drivers. Currently, texting while driving is banned in 14 states, including Alaska, California and New Jersey. A recent study by the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute revealed that "Truckers who text while driving are 23 times more likely to crash or get into a near-wreck than an undistracted driver," according to a . The result of that study has had no impact on repo man Lane Roster, a devoted iPhone user with a zero tolerance for road safety. Roster decided to dash mount his iPhone 3G in order to send dozens of email messages each day from inside the cab of his pickup truck using the popular novelty app Email 'n Walk. Read More
There is a Mars Science Laboratory rover going to—guess where—Mars in 2011.  To build interest in this latest space exploration endeavor, NASA has put together a site where you can type in your name and your zip code.  That information will be stored on a microchip and will be on the Mars Science Laboratory rover.  Checking out the U.S. participation map, California and Texas are sending the most names to Mars.  Those numbers shouldn’t be taken to mean one name per submission.  I’ve seen some silly requests sent to NASA including the one above.  Looking around the world, the U.S. is sending plenty of names followed by Brazil.  The country least interested in sending names to Mars?  A country with the code “MQ” which I think is Martinique or “Master Quest” from Zelda. Congratulations, Gadgetell Readers—you are going to Mars.  [Source] The problem with technology is that even jerks can use Read More
Teenager Falls Into Open Manhole While Texting

Email n Walk
Calendar16 Wed, 27 May 2009 05:20:43 UTC +00:00
Email N Walk is an interesting email client for the iPhone. When you first open the app, you are given a subject line and a message box. What makes this email application unique is that it displays your camera in the background. So, instead of typing on a plain white background, you are given transparent boxes with the camera providing a live feed of what is in front of you. Tapping the "Send" button on the keyboard will direct you to the default email application, where you can fill the "to" address or any other information you would like. Originally, this application began as a practical joke, but soon gained popularity as time went on. The uses for this app could very well be boundless. If you want to watch TV while typing an important email, you can now do both. Or say you want to check somebody out without appearing Read More
Email’n Walk : pour rédiger ses mails… en marchant
Calendar16 Mon, 18 May 2009 16:58:48 UTC +00:00
On hésite un peu : l'idée est ingénieuse, ou complètement ridicule ? Quoi qu'il en soit, l'application Email'n Walk, disponible dès à présent sur l'App Store, vous permet de rédiger un email en affichant, en fond d'écran, ce que voit le capteur de l'appareil photo de l'iPhone. Ainsi, on peut taper un courrier sans pour autant perdre complètement des yeux l'environnement qui nous entoure, et par exemple éviter le poteau sur lequel on fonce sans s'en rendre compte Comptez 0,79 euro.

Email n' Walk lets you email and spy with your iPhone
Calendar16 Mon, 18 May 2009 17:00:00 UTC +00:00
Email n' Walk is one of the most innovative uses of the iPhone's camera I've seen in quite a while. It lets you compose a normal email, but the text fields are overlaid on top of the view from your iPhone's camera. Finally, a solution to embarrassing accidents where you walk into a signpost while typing on your phone -- not that I would know about that from experience, or anything. Email n' Walk can also be used to spy on suspicious characters while looking like you're nondescriptly writing a message. Fortunately, though, it's really meant for your safety, not for stalking. You can't take or save photos from it. Email n' Walk also doesn't replace the built-in Mail app on the iPhone. When you save your message, it pops open Mail so you can address and send it. You can pick up Email n' Walk for 99 cents in the Read More
Avec l'application Email'n walk, il est désormais possible de rédiger un mail tout en continuant de marcher puisque le fond d'écran de l'application n'est autre que la vue de votre appareil photo. Email'n walk est disponible sur l'AppStore au prix de 0,79€ Il fallait y penser ! Quels sont les retours des premiers testeurs ? Pas de chutes à déplorer ;-) ? Read More
Email n’ Walk overlays an email composition window on top of the view from your iPhone’s camera, so you can type out an email and watch where you’re going at the same time. It’s clever, silly and we’d say don’t use it for its recommended purpose unless you also have a death wish. You know what though….It also sort of works. And while we don’t recommend putting your life in the hands of your iPhone’s camera, it’s a neat idea. Though I can’t imagine actually using it for its intended purpose, I can imagine using it to do a little spying while I’m sitting down and typing out an email. When you finish composing an email in Email ‘n Walk, hitting send will open up a proper email window in Mail so you can choose your recipient and send it. Email ‘n Walk costs $0.99 and is an iPhone-only download from Read More

Great concept...how about SMS?
jcudzilo 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This app is great for those multi taskers who just need to get that email sent but can't take a break from whatever they are already doing. (Please don't drive and email.) I'd love to see this with SMS ability too!
Great
lostaddict64 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
It works really well and does exactly what it is supposed to do, but it would be FANTASTIC if you could also text.
Super cool idea!!
Genius21 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is awsome!! I will no longer run into poles or risk getting run over by a car while walking & typing..which I do a lot of!
Great!

Truly Original App

"Gabor in Austin" LOL!
Seriously cool and useful App!
Bubnchub 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Great idea!! This is such a cool app and functional too. I walk and type a lot so now I can concentrate on typing instead of bumping into something!
Great idea!
halwaterman 3.0 stars Version: 1.0
I know I've stumbled a few times while typing and walking. And while I obviously wouldn't put my 100% trust in this app, it certainly is nice to have the extra set of eyes.
Does what it says BUT I thought....
Vee Ess 3.0 stars Version: 1.0
It was going to take a picture when I hit send and that the picture would be the backround of the email when I sent it. Figure out how to do that and I think this app would be 'HUuuuuuuuuuGE' like Paris Hilton says. HUuuuuuuuGE. I think people would actually PAY $$$ for it!
Almost perfect
J0£U@S 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is an excelent idea but if this was for SMS it will be perfect i dont even ask for a landscape feature just make this for SMS and keep whit the good work

Amazing
Bullet4fob 4.0 stars Version: 1.0

Does what it says, however
T.Ninja 3.0 stars Version: 1.0
I would like it to not remove the subject line when I reply to an email. It puts in null for the subject on my reply messages and nobody wants to retype a subject line. SMS functionality would be awesome as well. Please don't do a separate app for SMS if you decide to do it. I have way to many app icons as it is.
Cool idea
wjr17 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
If they had this for texting it would be a #1 seller. I don't email too much but I text like every 5 min lol.
Not quite helpful
Rubalcaba 1.0 stars Version: 1.0
Sends you to an opaque screen to add recipient addresses and has a fully opaque keyboard. I stare at the keyboard more than my message. If I can't see through the gaps in the keys, what good is the app?
Great v1.0 App
Darkyoda6 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Excellent app. But to be the best you should port to texting and add full email functionality.
Cool
Elisabeth107 4.0 stars Version: 1.0

Was FREE
lofisugar 5.0 stars Version: 1.0

Almost there, but still amazing!
smittball 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Love how this allows me to type away and still see where I'm going. Opacity between background and text is great, even in sunlight. Very impressed. Only wish there was a return button; I've hit send on accident too many times. Also if there was a testing version if this? Oh wow, that would be untouchable!
My favorite new app!
tbartley 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
To the moron below who gave 3 stars below, really? It's called e-mail and walk, not take a pic and send it as the background and walk. How you can rate this free app lower than 5, astounds me. Also, if you know your friends network, you can send a text this way as well, you just need to know how their network handles them, it's usually a combo of an email and their number. (Google it)
Dope app
Moleman La Flare 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Just needs to text
Does what it says
Copperchef 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Works exactly as it's advertised plus free is a great price. Will give it 5 stars if they add text message support somehow as I text 10x as much as I email daily.
Good idea but
Gunru_d 3.0 stars Version: 1.0
This is a good idea but it's not functinal for me. It does exactcly what I says which is good but I can't text, I can't reply to emails and I don't trust that the camera feature will keep me focus on what's ahead. It's a cool app to show off!!
Pure genius.
theyarealltaken 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
One of those "why didn't I think of that" ideas.
Handy little app!!
kristynms 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
If you know how to walk and chew gum,... This will help you also type! Haha took me awhile to figure it out though!? Thought that it would take a pic of what I was looking at... Then I read the reviews ... Silly me!
Great idea, but...

NEEDS LANDSCAPE OPTION AND SEMI-TRANSPARENT KEYBOARD Other than that, I love this. Great idea!
Nifty, need one for reading emails!
Osmodious9 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This does what it claims, & works well. I would love one that does the same thing when I'm READING email, though. Actually, I'd definitely pay for one that did this with eBooks, PDF's and other docs, too!
Great start
LR469 2.0 stars Version: 1.0
Great idea. Needs ability to reply to email and sideways-keyboard. Also needs see-thru keyboard.
Great!
funnyent 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
It's great! For those of you who want a text message version you are unaware of the SDK restrictions. Apple only gives email to apps. Not text!
