I have not seen this, thank you for passing it along!
There are options for washable labels too with the iPhone, but they're a bit
more expensive. They use an app called Digit-eyes. These labels are what are
called QR codes, and the labels have to be ordered from the company who makes
the app. I can tell youfrom feedback from others as well as my own dealingso
with the company, that theyhave great costumer service. I can provide more
info if wanted.
Take care,
Scott
