I will have a hard time trusting employees of T.G.I. Fridays or any other place that requires employees to wear buttons after seeing the HC-Smile. The HC-Smile looks like an innocent "piece of flair," but that innocence quietly conceals a 720 x 480 spy camera.
The HC-Smile can hold up to 16GB of memory and has a two hour battery life. Making regular objects into spy cameras seems to be all the rage nowadays, which really makes me wonder whether I've ever been secretly filmed or photographed. One thing's for sure though, I'll never trust a smiley face button again.
