World's Smallest Spy Camcorder Is Expensive And Not Covert

We love spy gadgets. As kids we'd play 007 and run around like James Bond with a large 8mm camera, which totally blew our spy cover. Today technology has advanced to the point where tiny spy cameras like this one can capture 33 hours of 3GP video at 15 frames per second on a 1GB MicroSD card. Awesome right? Not quite.

Much like the 8mm camera we ran around with, this tiny spy camera totally misses the mark with the bright green flashing LED that announces to the world that you're recording video. It's also a little expensive at $295. Back to the drawing board guys - Q would not be proud.

Update: We wish Octave still sold their Octave Multipod Camera. We reviewed the Octave in 2005 and it was about the same size but without the flashing LED.
