Digital shower for lazy bathers

Are we the only ones who thought this was a ski rack? Never mind. Off the slopes, this is the latest in an ever-growing list of digital bathing controls or, as we prefer to call them, "showers for lazy people."

We will say, however, that the "Ondus" from Grohe definitely has the most unusual name we've come across. But ultimately, it's just a digitally controlled faucet that can pause the water TiVo-style and resume flowing at the previous temperature, as Gizmodo says.

The black finish is a definite plus, and we appreciate the Ondus from a laziness perspective. But frankly, if it doesn't have a golden remote, we're not interested.

I honestly thought I would make it through the day without hearing a thinly veiled "golden shower" joke :-/
