I like that I live in a world where this is possible. It's a pen, which has a camera in it, and which is powered by a low wattage solar panel. When photos are taken, it wirelessly transmits the photos to a nearby base station (a digital medial player (also shown.))
It's hard to get much cooler than that. Oh! Wait never mind...it would be cooler if it were actually, uhh...useful.
But as far as pure "are you serious they can do that?" awesome goes...this comes in pretty near the top. It'll cost you, though: $332 for a camera that, in the end, probably won't take very high quality pictures.

While it is true that one application could be cheating on a test, it seems like a high price to pay for an A.
But seriously.. A PEN? that is some James Bond stuff right there!
