Thanko USB dental device will help prove you still need a dentist: "
Oh, the joys of self-diagnosis. Thankos unleashed a USB dental 'microscope' to let you check out the inside of your own mouth in great detail -- because youre so much more knowledgeable than a real dentist, right? This puppys got six LEDs plus a small CMOS camera so you can shoot JPEGs / BMPs or 1,280×1024 resolution vids of your champers then check them out on your home computer. Of course, the sample shots (which are disgusting and after the break) inexplicably show a closeup of someones scalp, demonstrating that this USB badboy has a variety of uses, all of them pretty gross. Is there something wrong with us if we just dont want to see our bodies in that much detail? Its only available on Thankos Japanese site for the time being, and costs in the neighborhood of $80, but we have a feeling that itll show up in the States anyday now... as soon as Oprah gets wind of it.
