Anyone who is design oriented loves the iPhone!  I haven't changed to AT&T so that I can get one, but I think about it all the time.  What a beautiful product.  The great apps turn it in to an invaluable tool.  The newest app I read about is free, and if you are choosing colors for painting your, you must get it!  I hope that other smartphones will be able to use this app one day.  Benjamin Moore has great LEED certified, low VOC paints as well.  Check out their Aura line.  All of their colors are now available in this eco-friendly, health oriented line.

Benjamin Moore has made color matching easier than ever with its new ben Color Capture iPhone application. Take a picture of anything that has the "perfect-color-you've-been-looking-for" with your iPhone, and with your new ben® Color Capture™ app, tap the "match" key. In just seconds, a strip of colors pop up under your photo with the closest paint color match highlighted. Give your phone a simple shake and your ben app will give you four coordinating colors that create a perfectly harmonizing palette based on your original color choice. Your color favorites can be saved and enlarged to the size of the iPhone screen for easier viewing.

The ben app let's you access the full spectrum color wheel, too, which you can expand or contract by fingertip control to zoom in on your whatever color interests you. Another tap and you'll have that translated into a Benjamin Moore color that's saved to your favorite file.

Once you've found that perfect color, you won't have to waste a minute getting started on your project; the app connects to your iPhone's GPS to locate your nearest Benjamin Moore retailer from wherever you're at.
