Universal Studios is to launch a Blu-ray app for iPhone and iPod Touch that will allow users to access bonus content from the movie they're watching.

Timed to coincide with the Blu-ray release of Universal's Fast & Furious on July 28 the new app will allow users access to a 'virtual car garage' of vehicles from the film that can each be rotated through 360 degrees.

Although the imminent Fast & Furious app is unlikely to make it any less bearable a film for anyone who isn't a diesel-soaked, nitrous-fuelled petrolhead, future developments and apps in this area are certain to be well worth keeping an eye on.
