The soon-to-be released 8x Telescope with Hard Case from USBFever is not your ordinary iPhone accessory. It's an iPhone 3G or 3GS hard case that comes with an accompanying stand and detachable telescope lens with 8x optical zoom and manual focus.
The case/lense combo retails for $28.99 and will start shipping on November 25, 2009. Using the accessory, you can snap photos and capture videos with your iPhone like never before.
On the upside, your iPhone can finally be used to shoot close-ups. We see it coming in handy when on vacation or at sporting events, concerts, and the like. On the downside, the iPhone accessory is a cheap way to turn your phone into a stalking device, and could be used by predators with less than pure motivations. Whether you view it as cool or creepy, you have to admit that the accessory does improve upon the iPhone camera.
