GPS Toilet Locator: the iPoo

"A UK company started up by a distant relative of the inventor of the toilet, has created a new handheld GPS device that allows you to locate and then get directions to the nearest toilet in the UK.

"Called iPoo, the handheld unit, which comes with a large 3.5in LCD display lists the location of some 43,000 or so public toilets in the UK and depending on where you are will give you the fastest walking directions to the nearest one. If however there is no public toilet within 600 meters the software will automatically direct you to an open restaurant, pub or if after closing hours, darken alley." Source: Pocket lint.co.uk

Those wacky Brits love toilet humour, espeically on April 1. Gotcha! Sad thing is, this would come in handy in NY, where I am today about to head out on a long walk. Wish me luck!

You got me!


 
The sad thing is, this might not be such a bad idea to integrate into other devices such as car GPS/map units so you know exactly how long it's going to be before your next bathroom break ;)
