Freaky spy gadgets have burst around the internet, and we religiously follow them to bring you the most absurd in crazy tech. Thanko has gone the extra mile in ensuring that your spy camera stays out of sight, while you quietly record VGA video at 15fps or take 1280×1024 pics. It has a 4GB memory and magnetic on/off switch in the form of a ring you wear on your fingers, that ensures you don’t actually have to touch the spy camera and blow cover. Available for $66.

Well, if the car key camera isn’t good enough, or cheap enough for aspiring spies, they could always get hold of this cheaper alternative. It (poorly) resembles a book, needs film to take photographs, and is atleast a decade too late for the market. The book’s spine hides the lens and the viewfinder on this $35 camera.
Here’s another lesson for those aspiring to become James Bond-like spies. Act like you’re getting in your car, or just fidgeting with your car keys, all the while taking pictures and making videos of the suspects. They won’t have an idea what hit them. Neither would you. It has 2 GB memory, records video at 640 x 480 resolution at 29fps, takes pictures at 1280 x 960 resolution and costs $66 at Brando.

Its again time for those crazy, useless spy gadgets. The latest is from Geek Stuff 4 U and they are offering a keychain with a built in camera. The gadget has 4 gigs of internal memory, so you can use it as a thumb drive. But its more sinister purpose is of course to shoot 640×480 @ 29fps video, or just grab a few 1280×960 photos.

There’s like a barrage of stupid gadgets these days that serve no other purpose than stupid spying. This USB Voice Recorder Flash Drive falls squarely into that category. It isn’t going to turn someone into James Bond, but it will probably feed their fantasies. This one looks like, and actually is a USB flash drive that can hold 8GB of data, but it has a more sinister function as well; it can record voice and has enough space for 160 hours of audio. It sells for $99.95. There is a lower end version as well, a 2GB drive that sells for $49.99.
