I spy with my little eye something I probably shouldn't, thanksto this exceedingly cool piece of spy kit. However much we try and describe it as something that's not for spy-loving man-children everywhere, it's inevitably geared towards the art of surreptitious surveillance. Hidden in this innocent-looking pen is a camera and video recorder. The video quality is pretty incredible for such a tiny camera, it records sound too through a mini built-in microphone and, despite its diminutive size, it'll record over an hour of espionage footage. Unscrew the pen to reveal a USB plug which will seamlessly disgorge your spying results and recharge the pen - a full charge will give you about 90 minutes of operation.
A Spy Pen Video Camera isonly of any use if it actually looks like a pen (so many don't), and this one is indistinguishable from the real thing. It even comes with three ink refills, so it's perfectly acceptable as your normal work pen. The Spy Pen Video Camera might not make you a spy, but all the wizardry inside will make you at least consider a new hat and a pseudonym.
