coverflow for contacts?

maybe this has already been brought up but i was just thinking - how cool would it be if there was an option to turn coverflow on for contacts. so if you were browsing your contacts, you turn the phone sideways and you see the photos for all your contact in a coverflow style that you can flip through.

Interesting but largely useless for most people, it would be just eye candy with no real benefits. Most people also do not have pictures for the vast majority of their contacts, so it would get old real quick.

yea - i'm not saying it should be a top priority but it would be cool if it was an option that could be turned on and off for those who want it.

that's not a bad idea!!!
And even tho most people don't have pictures of their contacts it would deff incourage them to take some pics and then show it off..

True many people don't have pics for their contacts but I certainly make an effort to add/take pictures for all of my contacts.

Coverflow for contact would be fantastic on my iphone. That is a genuinely clever idea! Can't wait to see your idea come to life! Keep on thinkin' I'm sure there's more good to come!

Excellent idea! I use 'em in Address Book and even customer logos. Looking forward to iPhone 2.0 but until then The Missing Sync transfers them to my WM6 device.

If anyone is familiar with the HTC Touchflo interface, I think they are actually doing this in there new devices that use Touchflo? Pretty neat.

Use the iPhone camera for the contact pictures.
