Makego is an interesting iPhone app which is a step on the way towards blurring the boundaries between physical and digital play.

While I don't think this takes it very far It is an interesting idea and one which I know I would have loved when I was a kid. I also think its quite significant that something which is design for potential rough play from younger kids has been make for iPhone an expensive piece of kit which potential has a large impact on its owner if its broken. I also like that it creates yet another potential use for a mobile far beyond the original ability to talk on the phone while away from a landline.
