The LA Times had a story today about a new BBQ grill with built in
WIFI...... This is a very high end product, starting at $5500.. to cook
hamburgers and hot dogs on.....
I have heard about Refrigerators with WIFI, toasters, sinks (?????).... etc.
Then there is a Japanese rice cooker with a microprocessor.....
You must admit that at least some of these products are a bit over the top
to have ANY electronics built in..... Just because you can does not mean it
makes any sense to build it in, and even less sense to buy it .....
And, yes, I was in the electronics business......

Just because some people use technology in a stupid way does not make
technology bad.
Cheers,
