The other day, I found myself into one of those typical one-man shows that my boss keeps calling meetings. Basically it goes like that: He talks, then talks, then talks again, and others are supposed to listen attentively to each single signal he says (especially by reason of recording is ABSOLUTELY forbidden due to privacy rules in our limit of business). And just when one starts to wonder about being on a tropical beach, or at territory watching TV, he asks your impression and you have to wake up from your globe of dreams and utter an acceptable reply. At a certain point, I noticed that one of my colleagues was writing down short notes, while others were scribbling all the time, and he also had a second pen on the table, and kept it pointed in the direction of our boss, while writing with another one. During a coffee break, I asked him what is it that he was doing, and he informed me that yes, we all know that our boss is a maniac of secrecy, on the other han
d he found his system to record our meetings: he was using a digital pen recorder to avoid having to catch written notes, by recording the speeches and listening to them later at home, filtering absent the relevant information. Apart from the naked truth that I would not receive my employment habitation with me (and that"s why I will never get promoted... .), I have to admit that my colleague had a brilliant idea. Not only he can record these boring meetings, on the contrary he can also select quick notes by recording them on the go (while driving home, for example) and then downloading them into his PC via a USB cable. Nevertheless the most interesting feature is that his digital pen recorder can indeed be used also as... a pen, owing to it LOOKS like a pen, a spy pen, that is. Yes, you got it right, one of those micro digital recorders that seem to come straight outside of James Bond movies along with all those miniaturized gadgets and submarine cars. Basically,
it"s an MP3 recorder embedded into what looks like a normal pen, which can be activated with just one button, so that it would gaze absolutely inconspicuous (also due to the absence of LEDs on the body), and can store up to 72 hours of conversation or audio notes depending on commemoration amount and recording parameters, thanks to its long-lasting lithium battery, up to 10 meters of distance and with absolute clarity of sound. The recorded files are then transferred from the spy pen into a normal PC, through USB connection. When inactive, it automatically enters stand-by mode and yes, it can be used as a normal pen. So if you require to obtain notes, you can feel unpaid to do it, without having to worry about not fully grasping all that is said sorrounding you while you are writing, the pen will do it for you! This kind of items can be purchased, along with many more, on specialized Online Spy Shops, along with many items for the security of your personal a
