Boogie Board LCD Tablet

Do you want to know a little secret? I’m addicted to sticking Post-It notes everywhere. It’s not that I love littering. It’s more the fact that I am the type of person who forgets things easily. So these notes help me to remember everything that I need to do. However, I’ve always felt guilty about the paper that I’m wasting. That is why I am such a huge fan of the Boogie Board LCD Tablet.

Simply put, 22cm x 14 cm x 0.8 cm tablet allows you to electronically write down the things that you need done. Once you’ve sorted out your tasks, just press a button on a tablet and the screen will be blank again, ready for its next use. This is so eco friendly that I absolutely love it. Sure, you might think that it is suitable only for children. However, we adults do need a little helping hand once in a while, don’t you think?

What I love about the Boogie Board is that it is slim and lightweight enough that I can bring it anywhere I want to. Its 3mm thick body is suitable to slip into even the smallest of handbags and its 120g weight means you hardly notice it is there in the first place! The battery never needs recharging and can last up to 6 years while its LCD resolution on the screen is good for about 50,000 uses.

Whoever thought of the Boogie Board LCD Tablet is a simple genius because this is something so simple yet useful at the same time.
