radio
Brando's Cyber Tap bath-time radio is not massively high-tech, sure, but its cuteness is undeniable. Stick its 4.7-inch sucker onto tiles or glass, adjust FM/AM frequency and twirl the volume tap to boogie away to showertime music. Is the red one more suited to Hot Gossip while the blue one's best for Coldplay? Who knows, but after a bad joke like that you'll be pleased to know the water-resistant, battery-powered Cyber Tap costs $16. [Brando]

Gadget Turns Your Water Bottle Into a Portable Shower
When you have been rouging it where showers are hard to come by, you will be happy to to have a Universal Shower Diffuser close at hand. Basically,the device attaches to the top of a standard PET water bottle and restricts the flow of water so that it can be dispensed like a shower head when squeezed. Just make sure you don't use that bottle you took a leak in during the car ride—unless you are into that sort of thing. Available for around $50. [Made in Design via Swissmiss via Likecool]

I have a soft spot for Ron Arad. His Bookworm bookshelf was the first piece of designer furniture I craved (admittedly, this might have been due to the fact that it was up on the wall in the apartment of a boy I craved.) He has me confused now, though, with his this design for a bathtub-shower-thingie that ever-so-slightly reminds me of this crazy wall sculpture from last year. Called Rotator, it transforms from shower to bath and back again, but there's something about its continuous trickle of water that makes me want to... hang on, back in a bit.

There has been a lot of emphasis in recent years on conserving water, but we all know that for most people self-regulation is damn near impossible. Enter designer Tommaso Colia and his Eco_Drop Shower. When the shower has decided that you have outstayed your welcome, concentric circles on the floor will rise&mdashmaking things too uncomfortable to continue. I don't know if this concept will ever see the light of day, but I vote for modifying it into a moving wall of spikes. Now that would be effective. Additional pic after the break.

Four-Minute Hourglass Shower Timer for Drought-Stricken Georgia Folks, Smelly Hippies
Unlike the rest of the Giz crew (especially Chen), I shower daily. But I'm also currently located at ground zero for god's wrath. Despite the governor's public missive for divine relief, Georgia's still got less moisture than scarecrow, which is really the only reason this four-minute shower timer in hourglass form interests me. It's only three bucks, and I'd probably mostly ignore its silent screaming, but I feel like I might shower just a little bit faster. Every drop counts right?

This concept for a combination shower head/MP3 player definitely falls under the unnecessary gadgets category, but that doesn't make it any less cool or imaginiative. The concept consists of a speaker/charging base/shower head holder mounted to the shower wall while the detachable shower head has control buttons for the MP3 device.

Musical Shower Knob Tries to Hide Among the Other Faucet Handles
This Musical Shower Knob rocks the tunes while pulling duty as a clever sight gag, but it's not going to fool anybody unless you have a couple of other faucet handles that look just like it. It's an FM and AM radio (too bad you can't slide a flash card in there for some mp3 action), but extending the humor a bit further is its knob that controls the radio's volume. Don't worry about getting it wet—it's completely waterproof, and it securely gloms onto the wall using its suction cup backing. All yours for $32. [Technabob]

The Shower Timer Eliminates Desire to Shower
The Shower Timer, by ShowerTimer, is a big metal box that you install between your wall and the neck of your shower head as a retrofit with (hopefully) no need for a plumber. It does what the product and company name suggest: You get so much time to shower and then no more water for you. Maybe you're drowsy and still have shampoo in your hair? Sorry, champ. Only washed half the soap off? Well, you got a sink! The bad news is, either way you're only getting 12 minutes to shower before the "discouraging" shower prevention period kicks in. More »

Jet Black Digital Showerhead Can Pause H20
The fact that the Grohe Ondus faucet-ware is digitally controlled and has a clock is secondary to the fact it comes in a Batman black finish, and that it has a pause button for the shower, which can bring the water flow back at the same temperature you left it at. Useful for answering the phone mid-shower? More »

iSave Faucet Water Counter for your Green Conscience
The iSave is a rather simple gadget that has just clinched the runner-up prize in Metropolis Magazine's 2007 Next Generation Awards. Attach it to either your sink or a showerhead and it will show you just how much water you are using for your morning's ablutions/scrubbing last night's taco melt off your plates. Designed by Reamon Yu, it's not going to save any water, but it will make you conscious of just how much is used/wasted, and hopefully will push you to further reduce your consumption. More »

Polk Audio's SoundTile Speakers Spray Your Shower With Sound
Designed to match Kohler's WaterTile Body Spray shower nozzles, these Polk Audio SoundTile speakers give you music in the shower without having to balance a ghetto boombox precariously on the tub lip. The 4-inch by 4-inch speakers are connected by coax wires to your sound source on the outside of the tub, and have grills and drains so water shouldn't get to the delicate areas. More »
