Good points. We've already got a cell phone version in the works - the microscopic idea has been tossed around but requires special hardware right now. Check out herbarium.cs.columbia.edu

Can't speak to Tricorders but it's a nice goal.

How bout a cell phone, or microscope, takes a picture of the leaf, the image goes to the internet, through Wolfram Alpha, and something similar to Picasa's facial recognition software, it brings up a few close matches, then you figure out what plant it is. A microscope could be use to identify the type of mold, like on bread. How are the Tricorders supposed to have worked?
