New vibrator may replace viagra for treatment of ED
The FDA has given its approval for a new vibrator marketed by Reflexonic of Chambersburg, PA.
The device will be available only with a doctor's prescription, with sales beginning this summer. More from Gizmag:

Developed around the belief among scientists that penile erection is the combination of multiple successful nerve reflexes that initiate a vascular event, the Viberect mimics rapid and repetitive manual/vaginal stimulation of the penis through simultaneous stimulation of both surfaces of the penis at high frequency - 70 to 110 Hz. Using the device for about seven to ten minutes stimulates the millions of nerves receptors that line the surface of the penis, which communicate with sexual centers in the brain and the spinal cord that initiate gradual filling of the penis with arterial blood to prepare the user of sexual intercourse.

In addition to helping strengthen and maintaining the rigidity of an erection, Reflexonic also says, "subsequent orgasm and ejaculation is greatly amplified."


Information is also available at the Reflexonic website.

Some questions remain unanswered: Most importantly, has there been anything resembling a double-blind test of this gizmo's effectiveness, and exactly how would you conduct a double-blind test of something like this?

OK: Silly puns begin in 5....4.....3....2....1
