From Boing Boing this morning: The Tiny DV Camera Recorder.

From the sellers site:

Features:

Now I like the idea of something this small with all of those functions.  Keeps it small, out of the way, and not so noticable.  One thing I would wonder about though would be durability in the field.  At $147 it isn’t too bad on the cost factor – but would it stand up to hard use?  Particular application I am thinking is for my fire department.  Now inside of a structure fire, wouldn’t anticipate that going so well, but what about wildland fire conditions?  Smoke, dirt, grit, and just the moving around might be hard on it.  However, and “tough” DV camera I usually see tends to be at least twice the cost.  Oh well.

This stuff might be overkill… personally I use a can of compressed air and a damp cloth.  However, for some, this might be required: Cyber Clean!

You take out the goo and mash it onto your keyboard.  The goo then apparently absorbs all the grime and crummies that have gotten in there.  It does look kind of neat – so might be worth trying out.

So go check it out here and see what you think!  (Originally from TechEBlog.)

Via Gear Live – This just plain looks neat and very simple.

This is the simplest portable GPS locating device available, ideal for finding your car after shopping, returning to a favorite spot on the beach, or returning to camp. Simply push a button to mark your current location and the device points the way back.

That is all there really is to it.  I can certainly see applications for this either in bigger cities or those folks to tend to loose their car.  Though at $79.95, it is a bit spendy unless you really think you need it.  Then it could be priceless.  (Think cost of wandering around the parking garage in terms of $$ per hour )

These tiny coins that look like quarters can be used to hold the small microSD cards.  They can be picked up from ThinkGeek.

While it sounds like a neat idea… I can tell you this.  IF I had one, I am pretty sure my microSD card would have a much greater chance of getting lost.  It just would.
