    Yeah if they had a color eInk screen on the fridge door that was fully configurable it’d be neat.

    Fridge/freezer temp, filter life, current weather, family calendar, holidays, cooking alarms(?)

    Male it a LED display and stream videos for the kids (who somehow don’t have tablets when you have a smart fridge)

    Basically homebrew a smart screen and tack it on with magnets…
