Huckleberry 3 is a sweet upgrade

HuckleberryOur buddies over at Ecamm (hey, guys) have taken the wraps off the latest revision for the Huckleberry, the innovative device that lets you use your MacBook or MacBook Pro’s as a video or still camera for all those interesting things on the other side of your notebook.

We gave an earlier version of the device some love back in 2006 (agh, embarrassing video link), but we’re psyched to see that the new version offers some significant improvements, most notably: two—count ‘em, two—mirrors. Clearly, the Huckleberry 3 is twice as good as its predecessor.

Actually, the practical use of the two mirrors means that the screen image ends up being flipped a full 180°. And, as always, you net yourself a free copy of Ecamm’s swank $10 iGlasses software with the purchase. The $30 Huckleberry 3 also comes with a cloth carry bag (ooh, spiffy), but we have just one question, which I’m sure the Ecamm team will answer in our comments below: what of a version for the MacBook Air?
