\"\"<\/a>The Jetsons kitchen of the future is upon us with SnS Design’s Ikan<\/a> kitchen appliance. Either that, or we’re looking at quite possibly the most expensive and glorified grocery app yet. With its 7-inch touch screen, WiFi integration, and voice input capability, the device builds a shopping list from items you scan or input before disposing of them. Oh, and it runs Android.\u00a0 Simply place this on the counter or mount it near the trash can and add +50 productivity point to your life!<\/span><\/p>\n

Once recorded, the items are sent to your mobile phone or directly to an online grocery retailer’s shopping cart, providing they support Ikan. Schedule your list to be sent to you on preset days so you can be ready to knock out your shopping on the way home from work! With the kitchen appliance, users can include their own branded retailer apps and view specials, recipes, promotions, and more from etc. right from their kitchen or Android phone.<\/p>\n

The biggest obstacle I see with a device like this is price. At $400 a pop<\/a>, I can imagine a bunch of people turned away simply because of the sticker. Even at half that cost, I have a hard time imagining myself “getting my money’s worth” out of it. However, if SnS Design were to send me one to change my mind, I’d love the opportunity.<\/p>\n

So what’s your take on the Ikan?\u00a0 Glorified shopping app?\u00a0 Does it scratch a real itch for you?\u00a0 Leave a comment below.<\/p>\n

We have a few pictures of the Android version below, thanks to Bill over at Ikan!<\/p>\n
