    Ryobi PhoneWorks

    Has anyone seen these?



    I was at HD yesterday and noticed the stand with the PhoneWorks in the main isle. I am guessing it was several weeks old due to the number of modules taken from different sections.

    I almost bought the "moisture meter" but decided against it. I want to get some reveiws before I buy one or even the other modules. The concept sure looks good, but I am a little afraid to use my smartphone in what could be potentionally dangerous envrionments for fragile tools.

    A scope is something I have been wanting. But at $100.00 I want to see the reviews.

    Very cool. I've been needing a new stud finder and for 20 bucks this might be it.

        As cool as it seems, I'd pass:

        - Prices are not really cheaper than stand-alone devices.
        - You depend on Ryobi to not actually write decent apps, but also to keep maintaining them over the years and working on new iOS versions.
