Only in Japan....... (http://www.cool-smileys.com/images/78.gif) (http://cool-smileys.com//rollying-eyes-smiley-tongue-out)

"We all new it was just a matter of time. With the rush to put more and more appliances on-line Japanese toilet maker Satis, one of Japan's largest commode companies, has finally networked the toilet. Just as you would have predicted, the information security company Trustwave Holdings has published an advisory regarding Satis-brand toilets. According to Trustwave, every Satis toilet has the same hard-coded Bluetooth PIN, which means any person using the 'My Satis' [Android] application can control any Satis toilet."

To read the news while doing their business? No, I've got it. They're smart toilets. Yeah, that's the ticket. Smart toilets.
