A century after the refrigerator supplanted the ice box as the newfangled way to keep perishable foods cool and fresh, the fridge is getting a digital makeover and joining the ranks of "smart" products.
Leading the charge are two of the best-known names in consumer electronics, Samsung and LG. Expected to be out later this year, LG's Smart InstaView and Samsung's Family Hub refrigerators will allow owners to play music in their kitchen, leave digital notes for family members, check to see if they're out of milk when they're away from home and even order groceries with just a voice command.
