Another spin through the Macworld Conference and Expo on Friday revealed more software and peripherals that push the boundaries of what Apple products can do. The show, which was expected to draw 25,000 people, wraps up today at Moscone Center West.

Some highlights from the show floor:

IGrill: Among the more unusual peripherals on display is the iGrill, a Bluetooth-enabled meat thermometer that will ping your iPhone when the turkey's done.

IDevices CEO Chris Allen is an avid griller who wanted to find the simplest way possible to know when dinner was ready; his company released the iGrill at the end of last year. The product costs $99.99; an accompanying iPhone app is free.
