iPhone add-on lenses

Thanks to the tip from TWAiP, If you are finding that the iPhone's lens is limiting your creativity, then check out this magnetic lens set over at Gear Diary.
I did actually buy the Macro/Wide Angle lens myself some months ago on eBay for the bargain price of £1.50, however whilst the Macro lens is OK'ish, the Wide Angle distortion for me was unacceptable, so I decided to stick with the iPhone's standard lens, and opt for the Griffin Clarify case with built-in close-up lens for close-ups.
The Fisheye lens is a tempting proposition, but before parting with any cash it would be nice to see some sample shots, so if anyone has one of these lenses then let us know what you think of it.

One unorthodox way of taking photos is to lick the lens of the iphone, which produces amazing out-of-focus shots. Give it a whirl!

Thanks for the tip, which is an unusual one. The photo's on the site are interesting, although the website looks to need some tweaking.
