Sony ICD-CX50 Digital Voice Recorder
This clever gadget could be useful for just about anybody — from an executive to a student. Sony's ICD-CX50 ($310) combines a 256MB flash memory digital voice recorder with a 1.2-megapixel camera so you can capture sound and images together. It features a 1.2 inch color LCD, a rechargeable battery, 4x digital zoom, USB 2.0 connectivity, and a built-in playback speaker. Unfortunately, Star Trek jokes seem to come with the device too.
