Looks like a nice unit, but $114 for the dual probe is a little pricey, imo.  Guess any time you put the little "i" in front of anything the price goes up. ;)

I just looked on Amazon
http://www.icelsius.com

iDevices iGrill 7685-IGLK Grilling/Cooking Barbecue Thermometer, Black (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

Not sure this is  good sign and the reviews are pretty mixed. I would take a hard look at the Maverick 733 or 735

I have both a Maverick and an igrill, but the thing I like about this is that it is wifi. I could go home at lunch, put on some ribs and check them from work. It seems similar to the tappique but at half the price.

Howard the Wifi idea is pretty cool!

Looks like they have a newer model out that has dual probes. I have now gotten one dead Maverick 735 and one that has software issues. I have ordered a Maverick 733 that will arrive tomorrow. But now I see the iCelsius has a dual mode version that is wi-fi. Now I have to decide if I need two probes!
