The One Click Recorder product page from Sharper Image is remarkably short on info, but here’s what I can suss out:
- It plugs into the audio jack of your computer.
- It can record audio up to 30 feet away.
- It can record presentations as you play them on your computer.
- These records can be uploaded and downloaded from the unit with one click, allowing you to transfer lectures or presentations from your computer to anyone else’s computer.
- It also allows you to replay the lecture or presentation, with audio included, so you can effectively start a lecture, leave the room, go get a coffee, come back, and dismiss your class.
I think what we need in today’s society is less human interaction, don’t you*?
That being said, this is a nifty little unit that works with one click, and no software or additional hardware to install. If you’re, say, a reporter who needs to interview people on a regular basis, this may be just the thing you’re looking for. Not that I’m one of those.
