thinking of getting this smartpen for my wife for a holiday gift.

The Pulse Smartpen: A Pen That Is Mightier, Smarter And Louder Than The Sword | GeekDad | Wired.com

i messed with one. a friend has one. business meetings at work would be great. i would nail my backpedaling contractor. well, wife is back in school for a career change. i think engineering classes would have been easier with this technology. anyone have one? real world experiences?

her classes are challenging, and every advantage would help.

Can you record audio without legal consent?

It's cool technology.

You can record ANYTHING without legal consent. It's what you do with it afterwards...

Giving the wife something "we" think is cool, is not usually a good idea.

Is she a techno-geek, or a girly-girl?

If techno-geek, maybe, if girly-girl, DEFINITELY NO

Nothing with batteries (maybe a watch or vibrator), nothing with a cord, nothing for cleaning the house, etc. Clothes are not recommended, unless you have a copy of what you want AND she hasn't changed size, AND it's a different color, AND you know she still likes it.

Silk, and I do mean real silk, lingeree is the only clothing exception.

Perfume, something subtle and that YOU like. Jewelery. A new car (as long as it is the right color!).

If you're going to do an audio recorder, make sure she will use it, and then, AS A STOCKING STUFFER, it might be ok.

Absolutely untrue, and hopefully nobody uses that advice and unknowingly violates the law.

Sure, give it to her if you want it for yourself.

You will get it back in 2 to 3 weeks but you won't get laid till next Xmas......well, maybe your birthday or hers if you do better the next time.
