 Product Description: Nuance's SmartShopper is an automated grocery list assistant. Using Nuance's state-of-the-art voice recognition technology, you simply press a button on the unit and speak the name of a grocery item you will need on your next shopping trip. A large LCD Screen shows the items that have been input into the unit, in alphabetical order. Then, when you are ready to shop, print out a list with the built-in thermal printer. The SmartShopper comes with a strong magnet which allows you to keep it on the refrigerator door. It can also easily be wall mounted, or just store it in a drawer. The SmartShopper is made out of a durable, hard plastic with a brushed aluminum front that will make a great impression in any kitchen. Amazon.com Review: This nifty organizer from SmartShopper eliminates the need to dig up a pad of paper and a pencil and try to remember what you need when you want to make a shopping list. Keep this handy device stuck to your fridge magnetically, or mount it on the kitchen wall with the included kit, and you're set to go. At breakfast when the milk runs out, simply push the Record button and say "milk." At lunch when you realize you're out of bread, push and speak again. Kids will love helping out. You can also add errands, such as going to the bank or post office. Entries are automatically alphabetized. When you push the Print button, the list is printed with errands at the top and food items by category, to make your shopping expeditions more efficient. Easy and intuitive to use, the SmartShopper is already loaded with state-of-the-art voice recognition software, a thermal printer that doesn't require ink, and 2,500 item names, for everything from brand-name cereals to antacids to paper towels. Three rolls of thermal paper are included as well. All you need to add are four AA batteries. Arrow buttons allow you to scroll through your list, delete an item if you wish, or add a customized item to the pre-loaded list. With its brushed metal exterior, large LCD window, and front-loading door for paper, the SmartShopper makes a great gift, especially for those who may have trouble writing due to arthritis and other health conditions. --Ann Bieri Customer Reviews: Rating:  Date: 2008-07-01 Don't Bother I love gadgets so I was thrilled when I came across the Smart Shopper List Organizer. What a disappointment when it arrived. The first one I received didn't work properly so they had me send it back. I paid the shipping back and they gave me two additional rolls of paper to use for printing lists. When I received the second one.........the ink was dry so it didn't print the list properly. Got busy and didn't send it back (shame on me)so I'm out the cost and stuck with a product that I consider a sham. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-24 Smart shopper This product doesn't work as easily as advertised. It takes several times before it recognises the item you want to record or it comes up with off the wall suggestions which have no relation to the item to record. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-23 More expensive than pen and paper, but more fun. Got this for my wife to help organize and keep a list for when she goes to the grocery store. Seems to work well, with a good library of things the average household would buy at the store. When it prints it does it by category, an added bonus. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries in order for the device to recognize what you are trying to tell it, and sometimes you need to use the brand name, as it has many of those in the library as well. I would buy it again, as I seem to use it more than the wife. Rating:  Date: 2008-06-15 DO NOT PURCHASE! SmartShopper SS101 Grocery List Organizer
By the time it you enter your items...you could've hand written it 10 times!!!!!!!!!! It didn't always recognise your voice commant....having to repeat it over and over. Then finally, trying to enter it by using key codes. 15 minutes later...still trying to make one entry that isn't on the programmed list. Not specific enough. Sometime you need a certain size or brand. Just entering "peas" might not be enough information.
The video makes it look so easy. "I SHOULD"VE TAKEN A VIDEO"...to show the truth!!!!!!!! It got returned. Handwritting is so much easier.
