UPDATED 6/16: The iCarta sells for a list price of $99.99, although the company is offering an introductory special of $79 plus shipping from now until the end of July. You can purchase the iCarta from major retailers, directly through Atech, or through OldFashionedValues.com.
Everybody's been talking about the Atech iCarta: the Stereo Dock for the iPod with a Toilet Tissue Holder. What's funny is why it's popping up now, when several blogs spotted it back in January. Maybe it's just because many folks didn't know about it until now. Or perhaps us geeks just can't stop thinking about this toilet toy. Or maybe it's because Father's Day is this weekend, and we all know that dear old dad would love to listen to his tunes while on the john.
Whichever the case may be, here's a lowdown of the iCarta:
It features 4 moisture-free speakers (2 tweeters, 2 woofers) that can play any CD player, iPod (with a dock connector) or other MP3 player. It also charges your iPod. An AC adapter is included. Gee, there's nothing like wiping your butt to the sounds of Staind.
But if you're not one for listening to tunes while on the loo, simply fold in the toilet tissue holder's arms to play the iCarta anywhere in the house.
And why should your toilet paper be so white and plain? Be Cornholio and add TP to your bunghole with the Sudoku Toilet Roll from BimBamBanana.com. One roll (approximately 240 sheets per roll) sells for $15.
[Sorry, just had to reference Beavis and Butthead here. It was just way too easy!]
