Coming soon: iLoo

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...ilet&ncid=1212

The iLoo being developed by the MSN division of Microsoft Corp. in Britain is a standard portable toilet — a loo to the English — with a wireless (news - web sites) keyboard and extending, height-adjustable plasma screen in front of the seat.

There would also be a "Hotmail station" with waterproof keyboard and plasma screen on the outside for those waiting in line.

SEATTLE - Now on the way: "Surfing on the loo" with Internet access at portable toilets.

MSN officials say they're negotiating for the manufacture of toilet paper imprinted with Web addresses that users may not have tried.

"The Internet's so much a part of everyday life now that surfing on the loo was the next natural step," MSN marketing manager Tracy Blacher said. "People used to reach for a book or mag(azine) when they were on the loo, but now they'll be logging on."

The device is expected to be in use at festivals this summer in Britain, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported Tuesday. There's no word on if, or when, the iLoo will make its way across the pond.

:rolleyes:

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

That's all there is to say.

I don't even like USING public toilets, and when I do I try not to touch ANYTHING.

Actually, this is the kind of thing I'd expect from the aussies.

Seriously, what's a conservative in australia? Somebody who think's they're too good for a bong so they stick to joints?

Or maybe someone that thinks sex with prostitutes should be limited to areas more than 50 feet from a school?

How about only in Japan, but then again they can surf with their tiny cellsphones instead.

I just woonder how the keyboard and screens will stand up as payphones get alot of abuse.

No son, I'm afraid that's not mayonaise on the keyboard...

That is hilarious!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA....no son, it isn't pudding either, whats that you ate some if it? :eek:

:rofl:

funny...i wish that thing was installed in my bathroom though :D

Yes it seems they didnt plan very well as to how it will stay out of abuse. And disinfected.
