Who buys those cards with fawning, overcooked messages so gut-wrenchingly twee that it makes you want to gag? 'Fankyou for being the bestest mummy, I weally weally wuv you' or however the damn things go, it's no wonder so many people turn to the plain card for their greetings. But then a simple 'happy (insert occasion here)' doesn't really do the trick. Can you see where this one is going...
For the perfect personalised message, look no further than Voice Pad. Cannily capturing whatever sounds you wave in front of it - we find voices are good, but excerpts of music, dialogue or any sound will come out nicely thanks to the more-than-adequate sound reproduction - the Voice Pad will then play those sounds back when the chosen recipient presses the button marked 'PRESS'. It forms a unique and very personal addition to your gift offering, and most people tend to like that kind of thing.
Brilliant for saying things that you daren't write down, or don't know the spelling of, a Voice Pad can also do its stuff outside the realm of the gift message. Stick one on a cupboard or the fridge to remind you of something or as a verbal warning to those pinching your provisions. The reminding function is particularly useful - ten seconds is short, but it's plenty of time to say what you have to.

More Info
Dimensions: approx 120x77x6mm. The unit is sealed and the battery cannot be replaced. A full 10 second message will replay approximately 340 times. A Voice Pad is small and thin enough to fit inside a standard greetings card and envelope, and can be posted with a card for the price of a First Class stamp. The recording time is 10 seconds.
There are three colours - purple, blue and yellow. Unfortunately, as Firebox is supplied with random numbers of each of the three colours, we can only distribute them randomly. What we're saying is, you can't pick the colour. Sorry.

"Achieve the perfect balance by recording a message to counterbalance the sappy/rude card you already bought."Boys Toys Magazine - Dec '02
"The ParotCard allows you to record a 10-second message of your own by pressing a button on the back. And you can re-record once you've played it back and realised how stupid you sound."TNT Magazine - Dec '01

Grannie loved hearing us sing "we wish you a merry christmas!!"Rory & Emma, Spain - Nov '04
Fantastic. I'm going to get one of these for my shared flat to tell the fools who keep stealing my "Fruit Corners" from the fridge exactly what I think of them. Bliss.Craig Laycock, Lancaster, UK - Oct '03
Sounds a good idea, if the little gadget had a longer recording time it would come in handy for overseas holiday messages etc, instead of a boring letter. Cool idea!Graham C, Kent - Dec '01
Believe this or not, over the weekend my daughter of 2 years and 5 months has learned to count to ten by copying my voice on the Voice Pad. I now have her working on difficult to pronounce words! I wonder how long the batteries will last?Roy, Leyland - Oct '01
This product is really cool. a received one from a friend in a card and I've since attached to my fridge and I leave messages for the other half, so its now become an everyday memo pad... Perfect. No more bloody annoying post-it notes. Cool!Mark, nottingham - Oct '01
My 2 year old Daughter loves it, it keeps her occupied for ages, and then I just change the message and off she goes again.Roy, Leyland - Oct '01
Not a review so much as a question - is the voice pad re-useable? If it's re-recordable it sounds great, but if not.....Firebox says: the message is recorded digitally, which means you can wipe it and re-use it again and again...!
