Phones need to be aware of where you point them

   For instance pointing my phone at my light should bring up its app, at my TV should bring up its app.
   
   Obviously there is no decent system for indoor location sensing, so how could this be done?
   
   Selecting the right app is the biggest pain point in using a phone.
   
   Also there needs to be an app scroll wheel on the back of phones.
   
   I also miss physical scroll wheels like Sony put on their Clio Palm Pilots.
   
   It's frustrating to use phones and having switch from using big, beautiful apps to select tiny icons from a big menu of icons to switch between apps.

   We need to find a new name other than phone. While it all started as a cell phone, now the phone part is just an app. Our "phones" are much more than that.
