Legality of Recording Meetings

I've recently downloaded "Recorder" for my iPhone and was happy that I could shelve yet another electronic gadget: my digital voice recorder.

I'm often so busy in meetings trying to understand some of the high-level topics, that it's difficult to take notes on all the details. Using a voice recorder was great in this regard. To be honest, I would just turn it on during meetings and review my recordings later to see what I missed.

I'm not really sure what got me thinking about the ethics and legality of doing so, but there's a lot out there that really put the breaks on for me. There are a lot of issues out there that need some careful thought and the plethora of digital options only makes the waters murkier.

What about recording sessions with Adobe Connect?
What about recording meetings with a Pulse Pen?

I'm going to think twice before I hit the red record button the next time. And I'm going to go through and delete any of the recordings I had made previously.
