In January Disney ran a trial test using Nintendo DS systems as interactive guide maps for the Magic Kingdom. Some of the features of the system were getting current wait times for all attractions; current fast pass distribution for rides; shortest paths from your current location (yes, it has GPS built in) to attractions , bathrooms, restaurants, characters, etc.; restaurant menus; and games. Evidently the various games can only be unlocked while standing outside of the attraction related to the game. Thus, it gives you something to pass the time while standing in line. Pretty clever.
