Gadget Love: Ultra-Slim Digital Voice Recorder, Flash Drive, and MP3 Player

slim-voice-recorder.jpgIf you ever need to interview someone or just record a conversation, you can't beat a digital voice recorder. Sure, lots of MP3 players can serve that role, but they don't exactly look professional. ThinkGeek's Ultra-thin Digital Voice Recorder not only looks the part, it looks really cool.

About the size of a short stack of credit cards, the recorder includes 1GB of storage that can be used for voice recordings (up to 69 hours' worth), MP3s, and/or computer files. Best of all, the skinny mini comes with its own USB cable, so it's a snap to plug it in and transfer recordings, files, etc. It also recharges via USB, though its battery is good for only about 4.5 hours of recording or playback.

At $69.99, this recorder is a bit on the pricey side, but it's also an ideal choice for business users trying to keep their gadget load as light as possible. [via Wired Gadget Lab]
