RFID (wikipedia link) is amazing technology and pairing it with iPhone can lead to development of some amazing apps. And the initiative to bring the RFID technology is taken up by guys from Touch research project, who rigged up RFID reader to iPhone and then placed some figures with RFID chip. And end results were impressive to say the least.
Check out the video below to see the mod in action :
iPhone RFID: object-based media from timo on Vimeo.
As you can see the iPhone shows different clips based on the figure it gets near to. I really hope the development on this goes on further to bring us some mind blowing games/apps

So guy thinks he needs to be connected to his Mazda RX-8 24/7, so he develops a hack to control his car right from iPhone.
The car’s webserver provides a password-protected web interface optimised for full-screen display on an iPod Touch or iPhone running the SOPODS full screen web browser. The web interface has three screens: 1) Control, which provides a top-down view of the car with buttons for start, stop, lock, unlock, accessory power, and boot release; 2) Telemetry, which displays real-time data acquired from the engine management system such as RPM, vehicle speed, coolant temperature, throttle position, etc; and 3) Location, which uses a Google Maps mashup to display the current location of the vehicle on a map using current GPS data.
Awesome , for more details do check out the full project at GeekMyRide
I am just another iPhone maniac who is trying to share his madness with like minded people:)
