You know when you go to your grandparents' house and they have one of those phones with really big number buttons and it's sorta sad? Well, Lou Reed's new iPhone app is the iPhone equivalent of a telephone with big numbers on it.

It's called Lou Zoom and it enlarges the names and numbers on your contact list "allowing you to read your contact info without squinting," according to a press release. It also makes searching your contacts a bit easier.

And, just in case you think this utilitarian app may have been created by another Lou Reed (since it has nothing to do with music or art or anything), no dice-- the Lou Zoom is currently featured prominently on The Lou Reed's official website.

The application costs $1.99 and you won't need your reading glasses to appreciate the screen shots below the fold:
