USB Microscope + Web Cam + USB 2.0 HubOh, USB Brando. You never fail to amaze me with your weird and wacky USB devices. And the newest product offering, the USB Microscope + Web Cam + USB 2.0 Hub, is truly abnormal.

It's not even the fact that this microscope is USB-powered that makes it weird. (ThinkGeek has been selling one for awhile now.) It's the other components of the device that make me think, Whaaaaat?!?! Not only can you connect this microscope to your computer and observe plants, insects, or organisms; it's also a web cam to chat with friends and a USB 2.0 hub for connecting other (useless?) USB devices.

It also features a 640 by 480 resolution, three optical lens, LED lamp, microphone, and CMOS sensor. Dissect science today for $199 at USB Brando.

It looks like a silver classic UFO with tractor beams coming down to abduct people. I wonder if the microbes thing that's what's going on when they're being observed? War of the (micro) Worlds!
