ASTROCLIP: Photograph the Moon with your iPhone 4

If you're an iPhone owning star gazer, then you'll love this new Kickstarter project by product designer Matthew Geyster from Boston.

What is the AstroClip? The AstroClip is a simple attachment that mounts your iPhone 4 to any telescope with a 1.25" wide eye piece. This allows you to easily photograph the moon and galaxy with just your iPhone 4.

Looks like it ought to work. But I do wish that the designers of these iPhone clips (Glif. et al.) would recognize that almost every iPhone owner carries their phone in a case, and that some cases are a real bear to remove. Yes, it would make the design process more difficult. But they'd sell a whole lot more of them if they made some sort of clamp-style clip rather than these tight-fitting ones, especially since Apple tends to redesign the iPhone's form factor with each iteration.
