Yes. With the tiny digital cameras now available, it's easy to carry one at all times. If you see an Arab doing anything at all suspicious, photograph him/her. If you've Arab neighbors, photograph those who come and go at their homes. Write down license numbers of their visitors. Keep track of their comings and goings. Be alert. America is at war, and many of the enemy are living among us.

A couple of days ago, someone posted this new technology at Radio Shack. Of course, these should only be used to view and record terrorist activities and not be used to peer into the neighbor's bedroom during shower time and click images.

The perfect gadget for the outdoorsman!

This combination binoculars and digital camera is great for sporting events, concerts and wildlife activities such as hunting or bird-watching. Whatever you see in the 8X magnified view of the binoculars, can be photographed in an easy-to-share digital format.

Excellent. Only problem is that Radio Shack does not open for several hours.

Looks like the perfect gismo for we fly fishers.

Get up high, above the river/stream, take a few pictures of what appears to be fish and document the position of the fish. Then down load the digital pictures at home on your computer, and you can then enlarge them to confirm if trout or some migrating fish were in that spot. When you return, you can go to that spot to fish.

I will probably buy one these unless it is like lugging an anchor around your neck.

Meade "CaptureView" Integrated Binocular & Digital Camera

Thanks for posting this info...very interesting.

That looks like a nifty little camera. I found some discussion about it here:

Binocular and Digital Camera Bird Chat

One poster says it doesn't work well in woods, only in direct sunlight.

Resolution on Meade is 640X480.

"A similar pair is due out from Pentax soon. The specs are much better than the Meade; 7x37, 1024 x 768 resolution. I haven't heard a price yet."
