A magnifying glass with bluetooth to project the images on your pc, with a shutter to take snapshots of what you're looking at, with different zoom levels and as powerful as a microscope.

Imagine the kids running around the house taking shots of worms, spiders, ants, etc. and sharing them online.

You can buy a USB microscope at my local Maplins store.

I know, but I mean something more portable. You can't take the microscope around looking for stuff. Bring the lens to the bug, not the bug to the lens.
