Runtriz Touchscreen Communication Displays Networks Up Your Luxury Home's Kitchen
Posted by Jason Chen at 6:30 AM on March 29, 2008
This Runtriz touchscreen is something we'd want in the kitchen area of our home. Not because it's totally necessary, because it isn't, but because it display stocks, weather, news, recipes, wine organisation, and even send emails and text messages to people on the outside. Why would we use this? One example is to make up a grocery list on the device (assisted by the recipes so we know exactly what to buy) and then emailing it to our phones so we can see it at the store. Or better yet, email it to the person who's actually at the supermarket so they know what to buy. That seems more likely. [Runtriz]

I love how they put "Shredded Cooked Chicken Meat" on their shopping list. Glad they added "Meat" on there. They could have gotten confused and come home with a bag of shredded, cooked chicken beaks.

John Mnemonic here.
If you have to put "walk the dog" on your to-do list, you've already lost.

@geekinky: And what looks like "lime, juiced" as opposed to limes for juicing or lime juice....makes me wonder if they just want a bunch of discarded pulpy lime skins.

I always Thought touchscreen controlls for everything, integrated in the house, are the coolest thing about rich peoples houses. Just looks so awsome.

$5k?
You could buy an old tablet pc + docking station and roll this yourself for say, 1/4 the price.
Rich people are dumb.

oh my lord.... 5k???? we use a nokia 770 that cost no more than a 400 when it first came out for the same purpose. Some open source developer could come up with an integrating kind of system to put all the seperate programs (weather email etc) together to make it a bit more like this, but for a few thousand cheaper I think we'll stick to the 770.
