Been kicking this idea around for a little while now and I would love for someone to make something like this, but maybe I am the only one.  Calling it Oatmeal, as in “the the only thing you need in the morning”… could have called it bacon too I guess. The idea is a stream of all the content that you want in the morning. Mainly that teeth brushing, shaving, morning routine that everyone goes thru of wasted time staring at a mirror. I’d love to have an app that is widget based linking to all the stuff of interest, that you can pick and choose, in the morning:  Its gotta have a delayed autoscroll so you can keep on your morning routing and the page shuffles thru the widgets. I know the option/setting screen would be a bear to set up, but throwing this app open on the iPad and then docking on the bathroom sink would be fantastic! IMO. Of course this will have to do until we have content programmable mirrors in the bathroom. The New York Times R&D Labs had a great skunkworks on a TV interface very similar
