Pros: It has a cool look.
You can use it as a real writing pen.
Very nice video quality.
Very easy to use.
Nice package.
 
Cons: It hasn't the working time as announced.
The pin hole is visible.
It's a little heavy.
It isn't a good webcam.
 
Other Thoughts: I use it for a secret video and it worked great! But i had to put some tape on the blue light. I had some problems whith the first pen i order but DX solve this problem. Thanks DX!

Pros: Its CHEAP and even try to function... nothing more.
 
Cons: My pen refused to charge out of the box.
Patched it by hands (see forum).
Also HUGE video sizes, much less recording time than promised.
Has no take photo function, video only.
Driver disk does not match the device (when trying to setup as webcam).
 
Other Thoughts: It could have better codec and smaller video size..
User manual should have AT LEAST correct ENGLISH, not a machine translated crap.
Also pen seems to be single-use.
 
Bottomline: Buy it if you want a cheap toy or a part for some other device (like RC toy).

Pros: Easy to use just press a button to record and press a button to stop.  To play videos just insert into USB on computer open file and double click that simple. Make sure you have VLC player or something able to handle the avi file.
 
Cons: The quality is best when used in natural light.
 
Other Thoughts: Its like having a camcorder in your pocket very neat.  I have used it to capture my kids playing and as more of a quick use camcorder than really a spy camera.
 
Bottomline: Its $20 and worth to record things quick and easy to carry around. Nice build with descent quality video for $20 you cant go wrong.  I am satisfied and probally want use it much but its neat to carry around just in case.

Pros: It has a great definition, a lot more than the VGA quality I was expecting (the kind of old VGA cellphones) and gave me a nice surprise.
Decent A/V quality, recording time just as manual said.
I was very happy with it, and was a little sorry I ordered just one to give away as a present.
 
Cons: It hanged up twice in the first months of use, but actually it was used by a noob woman, so it could be some misuse thing. After pushing reset went back to normal.
 
Other Thoughts: THE LED LIGHT IS ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE PEN, IF ANYONE CAN SEE IT YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG!!!
It's meant to secretly film while you wear it IN YOUR FRONT CHEST POCKET.
It would be stupid to keep it in your hand and point it's side to people, anyone would be suspicious of it regardless shape and size!!!
 
Bottomline: At the beginning it was hard for me to get the exact angle for recording (I got the ceiling or headless people) but after a while and some testing I got it right.
It's a must buy (if you use it right, not in your hand, I mean, come on 0406978, put some neuron in it)
