What, no mention of Japanese toilets?

I live in Thailand where most toilets have a handheld sprayer next to them -- part bidet and part firehose. Awkward at first but it's hard to tolerate a paper-only cleansing after you get used to them. While European-style bidets have their charm the furthest expression of this luxury is the Japanese toilet. Push button controlled, temperature regulated and with a drying cycle that's like a spring breeze on your privates. After using one it's hard to understand why they're not the norm.
