The Skylight Calendar 2, a 15-inch touchscreen family calendar, is $259.99 through May 7th at myskylight.com, down $40 from its standard $299.99 retail price.
The device syncs two-way with Google, Apple, iCloud, Outlook, Yahoo, and Cozi calendars into a single display, color-coded per household member. It handles chore charts, grocery lists, and to-do lists via touchscreen or companion app on Android and iOS. Hardware improvements over the original include a brighter screen, faster processor, slimmer chassis, and swappable magnetic frames. It mounts to a wall or sits on an included adjustable stand.
The deeper functionality lives behind Skylight's Calendar Plus subscription: forward an email or photograph a paper flyer and the device parses it into a calendar event automatically. Meal planning, chore assignment with kid reward tracking, and a photo frame screensaver mode round out the premium tier. The original article is worth reading for the breakdown of which features are free versus paywalled, a distinction the marketing obscures.
