Taiwan manufacturers keep coming up with ingenious inventions, never seizing to amaze us.
This time we have to deal with a very personal product that comes with us in the most intimate places.

Rsstroom reader is a gadget for toilets that prints RSS feeds on toilet paper. For a better customization, this gadget will know who sat on the toilet depending on the weight. This way every user receives its favorite news and won't get bored on the toilet.

Yi
Tien Electronics rsstroom reader uses wireless connectivity and prints on the toilet paper news from RSS 2.0 and atom feeds. This device is configurable through a web browser and can be set to print an unlimited number of feeds in random or alternative mode.

The rsstroom reader comes bundled with a biometric toilet seat that allows the customization of news feeds depending on the users. Also, the toilet seat can record and print your diet advance.

Yi Tien Electronics also announced another commercial version of the rsstroom reader, a more robust model for installing in public toilets. This model will allow advertisers to print customized ads on the toilet paper.

The Price for such a device not yet known though there are chances that rsstroom reader is a fictive product or just a joke.
