Looks like I'll be first just because no one knows what to say about such a thing.

I don't know..Sounds like a bad way to mix buisiness and pleasure...Oh and Number two?

Unless the camera has good shutter speed...the action shots are just going to look blurry...

How many places other than, erm, uh, you know, do you need apply a bidet?

There is no way this could be used without hovering.

OK, I'm not getting this. A bidet requires a water source: if its portable, where's the water? Do you hook it up to the sink with a hose? Which part of that thing is the sprayer, and which part is the camera? Please, I'm just an old geezer, this newfangled technology is very confusing to me.

Huh????

I believe I wipe more effectively than you, Johnson, and now I have the photos to PROVE IT!
Posted by: Christobol | September 15, 2005 at 10:57 AM
I guess this was the natural progression. Most SUVs these days have rear mounted cameras so you can see what you are backing into.
Posted by: Marftinishark | September 15, 2005 at 11:01 AM
*SNORK!* at Christobol!!!!
And by the way...if your HAND is under your ass while the water rushes down....um....do you then need the portable HAND cleaner? All this convenience is too hard to carry....
I'll stick to scooting across the carpet...

Sometimes nothing more needs to be said.
Aunt Nancy: I don't think it uses water. It mentions "Silver-Nano Technology" which, according to this:
Silver Nano employs the safe and sanitizing power of silver to eradicate airborne bacteria and germs.
Now available in the Philippines through Samsung’s AS18P0GEA5 split type air-conditioner models with digital display, Silver Nano—specifically billions of nano-sized silver ions (Ag+) are coated in the air-con’s interior to prevent bacteria build-up in the machine. The coating also has a deodorizing effect: thus, Silver Nano air doesn’t just feel pure, it smells pure, too. A Silver ion filter, meanwhile, strips and kills any harmful bacteria or fungi floating in the air.
I will also refrain from commenting about the second-to-last sentence of this quote.

thank you aunt nancy for posting my questions and to gary for attempting to answer them.

So let me get this straight. You're going to clean your rear with....air?
Posted by: Uncooperative Pixie | September 15, 2005 at 11:29 AM
I thought that was illegal? At least the last time I put a portable camera near the men's toilet during the fireman's calendar poster shoot there was a bit of an issue.
Posted by: Somewhere North | September 15, 2005 at 11:31 AM
interior insertion... airborne bacteria?
There's no air in there.
Posted by: Sondra | September 15, 2005 at 11:37 AM
I give up.
No comprendo.
Posted by: Eleanor | September 15, 2005 at 11:45 AM
Gary - thank you. I understand. This thing blows ionized air up your backside in an attempt to "clean" it. Unless this thing blows air at 80-100 psi, its not going to blast off any "residue". Sheesh.

Punkin: *SNORK*
My cat does that scooting thing sometimes.
Imagining a person trying to do the same thing....um...well.....
Look, something shiny!

Thought, most of the world's tp is worse than a page out of the Sears catalog (if any can be found at all) and it's a no no to put said tp in the toilet. It must be discarded in the waste can next to the toilet. So let Paltrow go, I'm staying in the USA.
Posted by: jp | September 15, 2005 at 12:10 PM
and let her take a portable bidet with her.
Posted by: jp | September 15, 2005 at 12:12 PM
So far, amazingly, nobody's mentioned the advertiser's claim of "Healthy and clean life".
Taking photos of your own privates is, I suppose healthier than - omigod! You could position it under the stall next to you and...!!!
Now I'm all paranoid.
And Dave, do NOT take Sean's advice.

you're going to clean your rear with..air?
there was a scene cut out of Desperately Seeking Susan with Madonna, and no toilet paper , and a hot-air blower along these lines...
Posted by: insomniac | September 15, 2005 at 02:08 PM
One of this slick new product's features: "Low noise." I think we all remember the time when the 3.5 HP engines on early model portable bidets were deafening.

Oh, slyeyes! You beat me to it!
Okay, I'll go with my second choice....
Bidet with camera? There have been numerous web sites devoted to that sort of thing for years!
