The average public transit user in Toronto has two hands (three, if you count your mouth as hand — and I do).

Of those two hands, one will almost definitely be tethered to a smartphone. That hand is a write-off.

This leaves most commuters only one appendage with which to carry any of the following: An umbrella, a handbag, a metro pass, a McMuffin, a TTC transfer, an accessibility device, a newspaper, a leash or some sort of stimulating, often hot morning beverage.

When first reported on, this brilliant little doohickey was something you could only dream about one day buying.

Now, if you're so inclined, you can buy one for $14.99. It might make a good Christmas gift for the klutzes in your life.

That, or it'll end up sitting in a drawer like everything else you've ever purchased because you saw it on the internet one time and thought it was kind of cool.
