Our days are packed with too much to remember that when we finally make it to the store or out to run errands, the mind goes blank. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s were the Smart Shopper comes in handy.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\" \/><\/font><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">I saw this gadget at this year\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s CES, and have to admit, where many similar devices have tried (and failed) in the past, the Smart Shopper might just have what it takes to succeed.<\/font><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\"> <\/font><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\"><\/font><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">First off, the Smart Shopper is voice activated \u00e2\u20ac\u201c just build your grocery or to-do list with audible commands, rather than an awkward text or button interface. What\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s more there is no training like so many ill fated voice based systems, it just works. The designers claim a vocabulary of over 2500 items\/words. When I worked with the demo model at the show it did in fact recognize my commands and added them to the list.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"3\" \/><font face=\"Times New Roman\">Next, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s tech, but not too much. This is a device targeted for the kitchen \/ home, not an IT department, therefore it does not boast a whole bunch of jargon and buzzword features \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Bluetooth interoperability, no; 802.11 connectivity, nope, micro SD compatibility, not a chance, but it does sport a really nice magnet allowing you to affix it the fridge or any other metal surface.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0<\/font><font size=\"3\" \/><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">In fact by comparison to most devices at CES, the Smart Shopper was kind of bulky, and down right un-sexy. But that is great! No tons of flashing LEDs to further distract you, remember why you needed this list manager in the first place \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Oh, yea to get organized and simplify my life. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">The Smart Shopper is available now online at <\/font><a href=\"http:\/\/smartshopperusa.com\/\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">http:\/\/smartshopperusa.com\/<\/font><\/a><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\"> for a reasonable $149, another big plus &#8211; a reasonable price-point.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"Times New Roman\" size=\"3\">So if you are looking for some Bling, go invest in a new cell phone or one of those unduly complicated new universal remotes, but if you want a helpful gadget for the kitchen look no farther then the Smart Shopper.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With a catchy title like that I could easily be describing any of us.
