[Electronics-talk] best place to buy labels for the PenFriend

Thu Nov 27 01:58:42 UTC 2014

Ashley,

The label is a recording of your own voice, or the voice of the person who
spoke the label information during the recording of that label.

HTH,
Annette

Also,  is there anywhere to hear a demo of the voice labels?

Annette and all,

I first got a Pen Friend from ILA, and later bought a touch memo from ILA.
These both essentially do the same things, though touch memo is louder and
has a few extra features.  My touch memo is the only pen-type device that
came with laundry labels.  I haven't used much of those, but they have
stayed on fastened via safety pin.  What I do is to wriap Dymo tape (sticky
sides together) around a rubber band and place a label on the Dymo tape.  An
old coofee is where I keep these labels for reuse.
