Akihabara News reports Thanko has released a new spy gadget, the Spy Button Camera. This gadget hides in your shirt as a button, but behind the button is a VGA camera and 4GB of flash storage.
We had the Video Camera Key Holder, the Video Camera Necktie and now, here's Thanko’s 4GB Spy Button Camera that records video in VGA @ 15fps and shoots pictures in 1280x1024. The Thanko Spy Button Camera retails for around 6,600 yen in Japan, which equates to around $68. Once you place the fake button on your shirt, you have to wear a special ring to start video recording and shooting pictures. When finished, just plug the camera to a PC via USB to access to your spy footage!
