Not exactly NXT, but it's younger sibling the RCX (who remembers those?)
These guys needed to test their iPad app by taking 10,000 photos. Either it's an *incredibly* boring job, or you build a robot to do it for you :)

Interfacing Android with LEGO NXT: Compass
Here is another example for using Android with your NXT
Here is another proof of concept to show Bluetooth communication between Android phone and NXT. It used the accelerometer and magnetic field sensors on the Android phone to calculate its compass heading, and used Bluetooth to send that information to the NXT. While this is not as stable as Brian Davis' Jenn Too, mostly due to magnetic interference from the NXT messing with the compass, it definitely shows the potential Android phones have acting as on-board sensors for autonomous robots.
