I wouldn't be surprised if these Talking Recordable Envelopes actually succeed in revitalizing the declining industry of snail mail. I mean, the Polaroid, cassette and other retro revival fads haven't already proven to us that we live in a very nostalgic age right now despite the rapid advancements of technology.
The beauty of these Talking Recordable Envelopes is that they blend the two worlds together by allowing you to actually record your voice onto a device embedded in the envelope. In fact, it reminds me of the Howler envelope in Harry Potter. You may not even need to enclose a letter unless the message is longer than 10 seconds.
Priced at $4.95 each, these Talking Recordable Envelopes play each time the envelope flap is opened.
