Let's hope this won't be announced at the upcoming media event...

The Pee Straight, but Apple could rebrand it as the iPee

BEIJING – An entrepreneur in the southern Chinese city of Shenzhen has unveiled a contraption designed to help those who miss the mark at a urinal: the 'Pee Straight.'
The invention came in the wake of a new law known as the Shenzhen City Public Toilet Management Act, which allows sanitation managers and other officials to slap a $15 fine on those caught making a mess of municipal toilets while relieving themselves.
The Pee Straight is a simple contraption. A standard funnel affixed to what appears to be a 10-inch piece of tube pipe, the device comes in his and hers versions -- hers has a shorter pipe -- and is being marketed to those who have trouble with their aim.

Maybe the Japanese robot urinal could help.
