Telescope Goes Mobile

Edwin over at Coolest-Gadgetes.com writes about the latest mobile gadget to hit camera-phone enthusiasts: The Zoom Telescope. Here's a blurb:

The Zoom Telescope is capable of offering up to 6x zoom, although it wasn’t stated whether it is optical or digital. Currently compatible with either selected Sony Ericsson or Nokia cellphones, all you need to do is strap the Zoom Telescope to your handset, place the telescope portion securely over your camera’s lens, and you’re good to go. Of course, if you have a much better camera that has at least 2 megapixels, the picture quality would be much better. Just bear in mind that you still won’t be able to capture nuts under dark conditions.

Now at US$19, this might be inspiration for me to breath new life into my trusty old Nokia 6230. All I'll need to do is clean out a year's worth of dust and dirt, slap this sucker on there, and start shooting!
