Why?  Well the stores are large and packed to the gills (and not conducive to actually finding what you came to get in the first place), so a store map with a pseudo GPS system (based on triangulation of the strength of the signal from multiple emitters to the unit—like what some sailors would use before GPS) would be extra handy.  Of course I suppose the fact that you can't find what you came into the store for may be yet another reason prices are so low (when you can't find what you need you sometimes end up browsing and buying more than you intended to buy).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maikeru]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:10AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on IBM brings us Shopping Buddy smart carts]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/18/ibm-brings-us-shopping-buddy-smart-carts/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/18/ibm-brings-us-shopping-buddy-smart-carts/</guid><description><![CDATA[We've had this in our local Stop&Shop for a long time.  Its pretty cool.  You can locate items in the store, order from the deli and at the end you don't need to rescan items, your total and items you bought, etc. are sent to the register wirelessly as you approach it. We don't have the email feature, though.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:10AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on IBM brings us Shopping Buddy smart carts]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/18/ibm-brings-us-shopping-buddy-smart-carts/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/18/ibm-brings-us-shopping-buddy-smart-carts/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm thinking of the likes of my mum, and my nan, who're already hypnotised by two for one offers and buy stuff they don't need... if the trolley is saying to them "hello, you know that washing powder you bought last week, you can get 25 packs for the price of 24 today!" they'll soon have spent everything.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Folkestone Gerald]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:10AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
