Just what I've always wanted...a fridge with internet access

[Nitemare]

Could someone explain why I need this?

Sams has it online for 4987 w/ free shipping if anyone is interested

you can access the internet to shop, download recipes, send and receive email, or whatever you like to do online as well as Hook up a DVD player or VCR and watch movies while you cook.

You can even tape your favorite cooking show and follow along at our own pace!

Flash games while you cook!

Personally, I'd rather just get a really nice fridge and buy a nicer laptop and use that instead.

You have a problem with watching a DVD on your frig?

 

[phonemonkey]

How good of a view angle do you have (is it like the Inspiron 1100 or can you see it without having to look directly at it)?

 

[drnickriviera]

Best buy has them in store if you want to check them out. The LCD was a bit low for my liking.

 

[djheater]

phone line or broadband? There are still many people who think that "internet access" means a phone line.

Is it hackable? Can I throw a larger drive in it? Network it to play movies in tandem with my home theatre so that I won't miss anything?

It's detachable but it looks like it is straight on not angled, so perfect for all the 8 year olds. Why not a nice refridgerator and a tablet pc with a docking station? I still can't see a need to dock your tablet in your fridge.

It will order beer so you always have cold ones in the fridge (For those who doesn't have a wife )

"So doc, I was watching pr0n on my new fridge while cooking some breakfast and the damn bacon grease splattered everywhere.....are we going to have to amputate?" :Q

 

[toant103]

i think it can order milf for you

 

[DivideBYZero]

Yeah, MILF and Cookies.

 

[Kelemvor]

Lots easier and cheaper to just put your laptop on the counter by the fridge.

Just bloody lovely....

more dumb terminals that users will leave unprotected, that will contract a virus, and send out oodles of spam/spyware/become zombies

"But, it's a fridge, not a computer! How was I supposed to know it would act like one?"

Goddamm companies...

*EDIT* oh, and the support calls..

"So umm yea, my internet's down"
"Does your system have an IP address?"
"Nope, but it's got a dozen eggs, some bacon, and homo-milk"
"....."

 

[rh71]

I thought it was common knowledge that the refrigerator would be the "brains" of an automated home...

This is only the beginning folks...

 

[CraigRT]

haha lame... but if i was uber rich, i'd buy it

 

[oboeguy]

That seems so... pointless. I can't imagine ever wanting a PC in the kitchen.

 

[JetsFanatic]

Can I tell it to defrost the pot roast for dinner?

 

[Ausm]

I seen that about 6 months ago.

that's a cool application!

Other than that, the thing is an uber waste of cash...

Makes more sense to just buy one of those little flip-down lcd tvs. At least that way you can put it where you want it.
