    980t-sssd-dstnewimageSo you’re sitting around looking at faucets like my buddy Sam was. And you happen upon a cool-looking faucet from Delta. It looks really pretty. Huh. But it’s $434.38. Why? You read on.

    Suddenly you see something magical: “Start and stop the flow of water with just a tap anywhere on the spout or handle.”

    Let me re-paste that “Start and stop the flow of water with just a tap anywhere on the spout or handle.”

    Wham. A touch sensitive faucet. If you’re like Sam you’ll email your buddy at CrunchGear to tell him about it. And then he’ll post it. And you’ll both sit there on opposite ends of the United States reunited – for a brief period – over the majesty of a touch-sensitive faucet. This is why they invented the Internet, friends. That and porn.
