"In a boxing game users can throw punches or duck, and their movements are picked up by the phone's camera. In another game, the phone can be tilted in different directions to guide an on-screen ball through a maze.

... To be sure, the cellphones aren't nearly as reactive as the Wii console but they are likely to become more so as technology improves."
