  1. It's serious. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 3

    Japanese people are very enamoured with toilets. They have all sorts of funky toilets over there, including fully automatic toilets that do everything for you robotically. Yes that includes what you are thinking now.

  2. Revolutionary by loader · · Score: 5

    I fell in love with these toilets the instant I saw them. Are you tired of the ordinary beige of the common toilet? Here is the answer to your trouble! This revolutionary product will change the way you think about toilets, it will change the way you interact with them. Other toilets are cold and unfriendly, but people actually want to sit on this one. They see it and they want to sit on it, to touch it, and admire it. What better way to show your individuality than putting one of these in your bathroom? You will stand out from the rest of the beige toilet masses, and your rear end will never be cold again!

    These are some of the benefits of the iToilet:

    Increased Seat Integration - The seat sits rather than hangs on the toilet!
    Futuristic Form Factor - Your friends will know you're cool when they see what you sit on!
    Really great flavors - No comment

    When asked about the price of the toilets, Mr. Jobs was reported as saying, "Would you rather have tomorrows toilet for more, or yesterday's toilet for less?" As for me, I'll take tomorrows toilet any day. Long live Apple! Heil Steve!

  3. Yes, it's a joke... by BJH · · Score: 4

    The guy apparently created them as a joke. To translate selected portions:
    The colors are: Bluelet, Green Curry, Red Curry, Barium and Olive (I believe he's referring to different *ahem* colors of excrement...)
    The "Do puri2 to iNax" refers to the onomatopaeic phrase "puri-puri"; I'll leave the meaning to your imagination.
    He says at the bottom that the original slogan he thought up was "Shit different", but since it seemed a little rude, he decided to change it to "Sit different".
    The name "iNax" is a reference to Inaxx (sp?), a Japanese manufacturer of toilets, baths, etc.
    The last couple of links at the bottom are for a 300dpi version of a catalog for these toilets (remember, it's a joke, so don't try ordering them).

  4. Where do you want to go . . .? by ghibli · · Score: 3

    iNAX: Where do you want to go after you eat today?

    What is it about Apple products that sparks creative juices in people? Does anyone remember similar takes on PCs? (Not simply jokes, but imaginative products incorporating beige boxes.)

    Are there any household appliances that don't have inbedded chips? Are there any products that will not have chips in the future? We have already have bathroom faucets that turn on when you place your hands underneath them. What's left?
