“Here’s an iOpening way to potty train a toddler,” Christina Boyle and Corky Siemaszko report for The New York Daily News. “It’s called the iPotty — a standard plastic kid’s training toilet with an iPad-ready stand so the little darlings can answer nature’s call while their eyes are glued to a screen.”
