This prototype blew my socks off! Even though the idea isn’t something completely new, but the execution here it is pretty impressive. The WVIL basically separates the body (or the viewfinder) of the camera from the lens – allowing you to fire the shutter in the lens remotely from the viewfinder. Their viewfinder interface seems to be quite interesting as well.
I actually tried something like this a while back. If you have any two from iPad, iPhone, iPod (atleast one has to be camera enabled) – download the “Camera for iPad” app on both. You should now be able to use one of your devices as a “lens” and the other as a “viewfinder”. It won’t be even close to the awesomeness of the WVIL but it should give you a feeler 
I’m tempted to think of a camera that can work on it’s own and at the same time, can be completely controlled wirelessly by a phone/tablet/computer interface as well.
