So much for not smoking
Don’t tell the guys behind the truth and whudafxup campaigns, but it looks like technology and smoking have become friends. There isn’t actually a lighter inside the housing, of course, and it’s marketed as spy gear (rather than pyro or smoking promotion), but I don’t think this Stealth Digital Camera Lighter would be the best Christmas gift for your niece or nephew. Then again, for just $29.99, the kids can just buy it themselves.
All things aside, this little gadget is pretty cool. It runs on a AAA battery and is equipped with 64MB of internal memory, which is enough for 100 pictures at 320 x 240 or 30 pictures at 640 x 480. The camera also has a timer feature and continuous shooting functions. It’s only USB 1.1 compatible and requires software (included) to transfer photos to your computer, but what do you expect for $30? If you’re looking for something more espionage-like, though, check out the l’espion S ($69.99). The surveillance mode function is definitely creepy, but I guess it’s a must for pervs pretending to be secret agents.
