Video messaging your family, whom you live with, and see daily? I could see why the Playboy Mansion would need one, but other than that is another one of those things i would only pick up if it was in a store during the next LA Riot.

That must be one of those cheapy "satina" finishes that are supposed to replicate the look of real stainless. Because if that's real stainless, the message board must be glued to the door.

After all the technology that went into it.
After all the designing, planning...heck someone got up early to go and MAKE the things, right?

After all THAT...there is still a note written on paper stuck to it.

Coffee's done.

Yes, have some.

@Curves: There are many (many) kinds of stainless steel. Some have a high chromium and/or nickel content that cancels the magnetic properties.

I cannot speak directly to stainless used on refrigerator surfaces, but I know that my problem with 'frig magnets is usually the texture :-) My current 'frig is awful for magnets (but won't show finger prints).

Slighty of topic, but I have always wondered...Why don't magnets hold onto stainless steel?

@rick020200: Indeed.
My local Chinese Restaurant gave me a color device that displays a calendar just the other day.

It's called a calendar.

It displays a calendar? Not a "calendar synchronized wirelessly to your [insert technology here]"? If it could show the details of my family calendar, that would be cool. Just showing a calendar makes it as useful as any pad of paper with 12 sheets of paper.

a simple chalkboard or better a wall painted with chalkboard paint rapes the snot out of this crap.
