iTouchless has nothing to do with the iPod, a lot to do with garbage

Further proof that anything can carry a lowercase i in front of its name to distinguish hip and coolness is the iTouchless. The latter part of the name is correct, there is no touch required for this gadget, but the front i has absolutely nothing to do with this giant, high-tech trash can. Yes, a beautiful, stainless-steel trash can.

The iTouchless includes a sensor that will detect anything within six inches of the trash can lid. Upon detection the high-tech door will slide open and remain open as long as something is obstructing the sensor or door. The iTouchless is available for $80. Welcome to the 21st century, Oscar the Grouch.
