Hehe, I also give out cable lengths and wireless ranges in meters. No one seems to mind, and so far, no one has asked for a conversion.

Interesting article. Thanks for posting it . I haven't seen any packages being sold with solely metric units on them though from what I can recall of my trips to various stores. I've seen packages with the metric label first like dishwasher soap book tape and several other items, but never metric only. At Best Buy where I work we do have several price signs that mistakenly got printed that were SI only (3m network cables for example). No customers have complained, nor do they complain when I give them ranges on things like wireless in meters either so maybe it's not as unknown in the US as people would have us believe.
Anyone else seen metric only package labels in their travels?
