Re: pan friend vs iphone alternatives
I think there are some labels that can be used for laundry, but there is a limited quantity and they are not as durable as those from DigitEyes. The DigitEyes app is cheaper and the laundry labels can go through hot water, bleach and the dryer.

Re: pan friend vs iphone alternatives
Hi, Go to http://www.rnib.org.uk/shop/Pages/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=dl9601 there's some desription and care instruction there for the washable lable for penfriend. I guess, the question to consider will be that, how many clothes you wish to label and why. Is the labeling worth 70Pounds or you already have other device that perhaps can do the same job? I'm not sure, but to label every piece of clothes i have, and record it, and retrasing it after every wash or when i need to doesn't seem like something i can see myself doing. If you need to find out the colour of the shirt or something, might be simpler to use one of the apps like tap tap see or similar apps instead. Reards Joanne On 10/06/2013, Donald L.
