Do you wish you can have a beer on tap while you're in the john? Wish no more! You could win the ultimate john! It has an XBox 360, a 20" LCD TV, a 15" laptop, an 30Gb iPod with iCarta Bathroom tissue dock, a refrigirator with a beer tap, a USB powered cup cooler/warmer, a dual sided magnification mirror, a DVD player and a Tivo! It even has a megaphone if you need more toilet paper. Here's what takes the cake, it has a resistive pedal exerciser!
