G-9, milk, butter, bread. The commercial illustrates these fabulous suggestions for those without memory or imagination. And that one had sold with a key chain attachment.

]]> <![CDATA[SmartShopper Grocery List Assistant: Talk Listy to Me]]> I would just like to say this is an awesome gift for the "ELDERLY", who may have arthritis or memory laspes. It can be quite "HANDY" for them instead of PEN and PAPER! So you young whipper snappers who still don't have a problem writing and remembering what you need, please continue using the caveman way of pen & paper.

]]> <![CDATA[SmartShopper Grocery List Assistant: Talk Listy to Me]]> Just got it. It works quite well, easily recognizing my three-year-old son's request for "chocolate milk". The printout clusters items according to category (e.g., the chocolate milk is categorized as dairy). This solves the problem of my wife being unable to read my handwriting. The main problem is the rolls of thermal paper are tiny and won't last long.

All the snacks together, all the dairy together, etc. It is aimed at the busy mom who wants to make one trip down each aisle and get everything. Also lets the whole family add items they need.

This isn't a device for those of us who just buy beer, chips, and frozen dinners. :)

It is cool to see a device I designed make it onto Gizmodo! I did the electrical design and most of the low level software. It uses a BlackFin DSP and an Atmel AVR micro.

]]> <![CDATA[SmartShopper Grocery List Assistant: Talk Listy to Me]]> it puts the items in alphabetical order? in what alphabet is "o" in between "p" and "s"? and shouldn't popcorn come first alphabetically before pork chops? definitely looks like it's worth $250.

Cool. However, this needs to be priced at $79 or less and then I'll get one for my parents and myself.

Include the freebie trade show pens and we're looking at a 150-dollar net gain over that solution.

That's alot of raisin tea biscuits.

]]> <![CDATA[SmartShopper Grocery List Assistant: Talk Listy to Me]]> thats a lot of money for a voice recorder.
I could just make a list and print it

greysky

]]> <![CDATA[SmartShopper Grocery List Assistant: Talk Listy to Me]]> Would be nice if you could download a specific store's layout, then have it put the list in aisle order for faster shopping.

]]> <![CDATA[SmartShopper Grocery List Assistant: Talk Listy to Me]]> But, but, I have hands and a pen and paper. Why do I need to speak into something to get a printed list?
