"Electronic Board" displays messages on walls

by Marc Perton, posted Apr 11th 2006 at 10:09AM

If you're looking for a way to consolidate your messages without having to sit in front of a computer or pick up a phone, this prototype messaging system from Korea might do the trick. It apparently displays text, voice and video messages on a wall, and includes smart cards that can be used to send canned responses. Of course, it's probably part of some "smart home of the future" demo, which means it'll never be produced in Korea or anywhere else.

That's neat and all. But it seems a bit too retro.
I mean if anyone in my family wants to leave me a message, I can think of plenty of current ways to do it:

1) They can E-mail me.
2) They can call me on my cell.
3) They can txt msg me.
4) They can Instant message me.

I'll bet the japanese already have it in every home, but they're effective at keeping it a secret because they kill all the "ancient" North Americans who find out about it.

Is it just me or wouldn't RFID cards or tags be better suited for this?
