digital scale? a dream or reality...

megagprime · #1 (**permalink**) 06-07-2009, 08:42 AM

so is it evenpossible and do we have any programers working on it?

i would sooo love one as would hundreds of other peoples
i saw a thread over on xda with a bunch of people all pooling together their money so it would obviously be worth it.

my friend tried telling me about the iphone scale but i showed her that its not pressure sensitive its gyro-based (from what i think) that method seems to flimsy

so................... will the dream ever actually come true?

or will i always say dam,,, this phone does everything but weigh stuff.

I don't understand the fascination with ppl wanting this function.
yes, I would have a use for it..

but I don't see it being accurate or reliable.
I just don't get it.

Maybee taking a photo of something, then trying to calculate the size/density may be a more viable option...

Why would anyone need to weigh stuff on there phone?

ppl don't trust what someone says a 'product' weighs, they want to verify.
the real question is why would anyone want 'product' residue on their phone

Yes i will stand on my phone to check my weight.And if i'm lucky my phone won't snap in two.
Dream reality for sure.

I'd use it to weigh tea leaves. Obviously, though, that would look incriminating, but the leaves are fundamentally different

I gotta disagree about being fundamentally different, still contains chemicals that pass thru the blood brain barrier.
and would also leave residue.
