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

Here is a link for a cool option for iphone users. You can purchase for $4.99
an app for you iphone and purchase labels and essentially turn your iphone into
a penfriend (labels not washable)
http://www.talkingtag.com/talkingtag-products/
TalkingTag™ LV ($4.99) from TalkingTag <http://talkingtag.com/lv.htm> enables
blind people to label everyday items with special coded stickers. Users scan
each sticker with the iPhone camera and record and replay via VoiceOver up to a
1-minute audio message identifying what's being labeled. The app is ideal for
organizing a DVD collection, locating boxes during a move, or picking the right
jelly jar from the refrigerator. Stickers can be erased and recorded over.
