Have you ever wished you had a camcorder on you, for when your friends said that hilarious pun or when your child did something new that you wished you could save for the memory? How about that time at that wedding when the best man made that drunken speech, or if you just want to keep a small, but beady eye on guests in the house such as babysitters or nannies? Well, you no longer have to lug around your camera everywhere you go, the Spy Pen is the latest video recorder on the market, and has been ever dubbed as the smallest in the world.

The Spy Pen looks just like an ordinary ballpoint pen, except it contains something a little more special than ink. With a 2GB internal memory, it can record up to 4 consecutive hours of footage for playback, meaning it can be left to run unattended and capture the moments you want on video. It will need charging after 4 hours, but the memory can hold a total of 15 hours. As it only weighs 42g, it is just like carrying around a normal pen. It records videos in 3GP format, and comes with the lithium battery (rechargeable) and the USB charger included in the price. Also, like a normal ...
... pen, it has a pocket clip, which means it can be worn whilst recording, which could lead to some funny clips of people's faces (and nostrils, if you're not careful). If course, this also means it can be safely attached when at busy events such as parties or when exercising or walking, so it will not fall off and become lost.

As it is so unobtrusive, even if people know the Spy Pen is recording they may very well forget it is on once set up and left. Of course, you must be careful people don't use it as a normal pen, and also that it doesn't accidentally get picked up and taken home in someone else's bag (we all know pens and women's handbags are mutually attracted to each other like bees to honey). As this would be a quite costly pen to lose, be sure to place it out of easy reach of others. Likewise, if recording the children, make sure they cannot get to it to play with it; this may not be a good combination.

The Spy Pen has received some great reviews from users who have used it to capture their nearest and dearest on candid camera, and seems to be the next big thing in the world of surveillance technology, as it's somewhat less light hearted uses may include checking to make sure people aren't stealing or are doing what they are being paid to (for example, a babysitter on the job).

If you like the idea of the Spy Pen, be sure to look around and buy it from a reputable retailer. It may be a great Christmas present for someone, or perhaps you can buy it as a personal present to yourself, but either way, be sure to shop around for the best prices and deals available.
