Ever seen a font that catches your fancy and then spend ages trying to track it down? Now anyone with an iPhone can snap a photo of a billboard, poster or any document and an in-phone image processor will cross reference the typeface with the MyFonts database.

It's a simple application that's downloadable for iPhones. It's wi-fi compatible and also works with images saved from Safari or Mail on an iPod Touch, so that means even more instant gratification all around when chasing down mystery fonts.
