  Awesome! Finally the blank spot in my bathroom can be filled.
  Pitty it does not have gesture control but guess airplay via raspberry will do.

  I have been thinking about a program (hopefully can be crowd funded) that can allow the toilet seat to communicate with the TV. As soon as you apply pressure (sorry) it turns on and straight to national geographic. The natural sight an sounds will help you in your journey.

  And if you are in a mood then a "custom channel" can be programmed. Beats carrying your phone to the dunny and checking oz bargain out any day.

  Must have a mechanism to turn off as soon as the flusher goes off.

  Any takers?

    The event system in MythTV would actually make this trivial.
    The only hard bit would be that you are spoiled for choice in the sheer number of different sensor systems you could use to trigger the event - the cheapest & most trivial likely being to disassemble a mouse, but given the sheer number of cheap input systems available it wouldn't be by much.
    Rather than pressure you could use a light (infra-red?) beam over the toilet, seems a bit more hygienic/less in the way when cleaning.
    In order to keep the system wireless you could use a small turbine in the water inlet to charge batteries for the sensor system, a small drop in inlet pressure and hence fill speed is very unlikely to be a problem in anything but the worst water pressure areas.
    You could also add a couple of flush sensors (water level?) and use them to trigger applying power for 20sec or so to one of the airwick automatic air freshener units (they run on 4.5v so 5v would be fine, they spray once about 10 sec after being turned on) and turn on the fan for a while for a full flush but not a half flush.
