A specific data point: the (pretty good) Japanese toilet I have retails for about $2,600.00 US. http://item.rakuten.co.jp/sumailab/ces9896px/?scid=af_pc_etc&sc

  Neorest... pshhh. Time to upgrade, Mason! The Satis is controlled by your smartphone (which you have to admit you'll probably already have in your hand anyway) so you don't have to touch that filthy control panel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JO8LutKUTO4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JO8LutKUTO4 (also shows an animation of the sprayer thingy)

  Yup - and I think it's overpriced. If it was a consumers' market this would be way cheaper, but in Japan it's very much a B2B thing, therefore you don't get good prices if you want to buy your own.

    YC company to make a self-powered washing toilet (maybe using the water flow to turn a generator?)
