AirMicro Wireless iPad/iPhone Microscope Camera

Working seamlessly with Apple devices such as the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, the AirMicro Model A1 is a portable, wireless microscope that can magnify to 50–400 times the size of the original image.
The lens is changeable in a range of magnifications, and the scope uses batteries for ease of handling.

Dang shame that the price is so high. This device would make documenting skin lesions for your Dermatologist child's play.

This could be a really nice tool to record insect and aquatic Trout prey species for later identification and matching. The only small problem is that the environs Trout prefer are not served by cell service. So, a real GPS would have to join the party to lock down the location where the record was made.
