That's a pretty cool idea. I suppose I could just code this up in a day and publish it to the store! — jakenberg

You might need some OCR framework like e.g. http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/ (edit: Objective-C wrapper for Tesseract: https://github.com/ldiqual/tesseract-ios)

There might be better solutions, though. Google is your friend !
