Ohio Art's classic Etch A Sketch toy has come to the iPhone, thanks to the efforts of developers Freeze Tag. It's a US$4.99 software toy available through the App Store that runs on iPhones and iPod touches running iPhone 2.0 software.

The Etch a Sketch has been reborn as a $4.99 app for your iPhone or iPod touch.Etch A Sketch for iPhone and iPod touch features finger-touch drawing, coloring options, shape creation and photo import and export--all capabilities that the original toy lacks. But the familiar up-down left-right knob controls are there, and if you want to start over, it's just the same--just grab your iPhone or iPod touch and shake to erase the image. You can also add text and captions, and send your finished work to friends.

Look for Etch a Sketch in the Games Section.
