Poll: How much would you pay for this?

[max347]

Hopefully I have this in the correct section.

Just doing a pricing estimate (I know what they have released it as, just trying to get any idea for willingness to pay) could you guys help me out?

What would you be willing to pay for this?

Thank you!

I would pay nothing - don't need it. This thread belongs in Merchandise and Shopping.

You need a $0 option for those of us who wouldn't pay anything for something that silly. Why would anyone want to stand in front of their fridge door to make use of a very limited tablet PC?

Zero, zip, nothing. This is a case of a product manager going all geeky and not doing their market research.

Really? Ha, nothing I would ever consider buying

I'd pay no more than 1k for that. It's cool, but not something I'd want to spend a fortune on. A typical fridge is a bit under 1k, so I think it's fair to pay about 1k for one that has a tablet glued on it. I'd also wait for the T9001 model to come out. That way it's over 9000.

the only way i would pay for something like that is if it automatically knew what all the food i had in my fringe was with zero input from a human

This sums it up for me, I can't wait for everything to be rfid tagged, then the fridge could scan it in automatically.

I think a lot of people may be out of touch with reality though (or obviously not in the market for such a fridge, which is fine). Any french door fridge with 30< cubic feet of storage and stainless steel finish will MSRP over $3k. So the question I guess it, what is the added value *on top* of that $3k.
