Default Neat inventions

Post some inventions we probably haven't heard of here that you think are kinda neat...

I'll go first.

TankPitStop: Robotic gas station that automatically detects what make your car is, deducts the payment from your account automatically, and fills your car up for you without you ever leaving your car.
Information: http://www.tankpitstop.nl/index.php?pid=8&lang=en

Nubrella: Redesign of the old umbrella. Apparently hands free and full head coverage, not a bad idea but totally dorky...

Electrolux Inspiro: Automatic oven. Automatically detects how long to cook something and at what temperature for perfect results.

LG Internet Refrigerator: Automatically orders groceries online and has them delivered to your house when you run out of something. Touch screen. Internet, check email, download digital music, or even watch TV. leave video messages for family members, monitor grocery inventory without opening the door, keep track of important dates & appointments, store nutritional information, shoot and email digital pictures to family members.

Oh hi, I'm a lazy American so I want all these things that make my life easier so I don't have to move from the couch!

>< They are neat inventions but for the love of GOD! WHY do they keep trying to make things Automatic? Is it that hard to get out of your car to fill up with gas?!?! I mean even if it is raining the pumps are covered by a roof! Is it that hard to hold an umbrella?!? IS IT THAT HARD TO LOOK UP WHAT TEMP AND FOR HOW LONG TO COOK SOMETHING?!?! IS IT TOO HARD TO DRIVE TO THE STORE TO GET GROCERIES?!?!

We are f#$%ing lazy.

OT: Watching Pitchman last night saw a vertical griller, grills better then George Forman Grill. Kinda neat. And an odor remover that works awesome.

TankPitStop seems like a good idea. I dont want to be standing outside in a blizzard while I fill up my tank.
