Self Destructing Text Messages

December 10th, 2005 by Al in Mobile Phones, Spy Stuff

Mission Impossible

Yeah sorry I never was any good at music (or English to that matter) but imagine the sound track to Mission Impossible as that’s what this post reminds me of, self destructing text messages.

It’s been a said on a fair few spy movies (and cartoons) “This message will self destruct in 30 seconds” generally followed 30 seconds later by a smoking cassette recorder (I think they had those in the 60s and 70s ). But a company is bringing the self destructing message in to the mobile arena.

Estes XB-39 RC Spyplane with 26-shot digicam

December 8th, 2005 by Anita in Spy Stuff

spyplane

Well, I found another great spy gadget – The Estes XB-39 remote control spyplane. This is the perfect gadget for any spy or anyone that wants to take a peak at what their neighbor might be doing over that large wooden fence.

This cool Spyplane has a wingspan of 55 inches, can reach altitudes up to 1,000 feet and is 34 inches in length and has twin ducted fan jet engines. The best part about this spyplane is you will not just learn what your neighbor is doing but will be able to take 26 aerial photos with just a simple button on the transmitter. Then you will have all the proof you need to let her husband know what goes on while he is at work.

Kidz-Med TeddyCam

November 21st, 2005 by Anita in Home Gadgets, Spy Stuff

teddycam

We all worry about our children when we leave them in the care of others, even in our own home, that is why this Kidz-Med TeddyCam is excellent for reassuring us that our little ones are in the best hands possible.

No matter, if you use a nanny on a full time basis or you use the next-door neighbor as a babysitter for a night out on the town, you may wonder if your children are okay and sleeping safely in their beds. The best way to know this is not to call, who can’t ask everyone in the home to be quiet when the parents call. The best way to know what is going on is to have the Kidz-Med TeddyCam sitting on a shelf giving you live images on what is going on while you are away.

Supersonic Ear by Wild Planet

November 11th, 2005 by Anita in Spy Stuff

supersonicear
You may think this is just a child’s toy but you would be completely mistaken. My son has one of these and you would be amazed at just what you can really hear with this device.

There should be more laws invoked concerning toys with this power. You can honestly sit in one motel room, point the electronic listening device toward the room next door, and hear what is going on. Not only that, but if you go outside and point it toward homes as you are walking by you can actually hear them talking. You may not be able to distinguish each and every word according to how far you are from the house, but you can hear the voices.

Got Bugs, and I don’t mean the insect kind. I mean eyes and ears watching and listening to your every move in your home or office. Have you recently gone through a divorce and just know that your conniving ex-spouse is spying on you? Are you working on a new invention or new technology and you believe your competitors are trying to learn your secrets to success?

If any of the above has crossed your mind, there is an easy way to find out. All you need is the Bug Detector. This wonderful gadget will let you know if there are any hidden cameras or any other type of wireless bugs in your home, underground laboratory, or office.

Lighter Camera

October 18th, 2005 by Anita in Spy Stuff

lighter

If you have ever wished you could take pictures without anyone knowing then you must get a lighter camera. However, don’t try to light a cigarette with this gadget because it is non-functioning, just a clever way to hide a secret camera. Just carry it along with you in your shirt pocket or purse and then whip it out to get those shots of the next-door husband with his girlfriend during lunch, or one of the neighbor’s kids throwing brick through a store window. You are sure to be the first one with the prizing winning photo of all the activities going on around your town.

According to several people who use Reg Organizer, they were fascinated with the existence of this kind of aggressive tool, that could clean up system registry and truly manage the keys and identify unnecessary ones. Unfortunately, under shareware mode, many of these strong functions are reduced.

Nonetheless, the shareware is free to download and worth a try.
