Pillowtalk goes high-tech

You might remember the perCushion by Urban Tool being mentioned here before. At that time the strange Bluetooth pillow was a concept, but it seems Urban Tool changed the shape, added a bit of color, and will finally be selling it to the public. In case you don't remember, perCushion connects to your mobile phone via Bluetooth so you can carry conversations over a built-in loudspeaker while you relax.

The guys over at Engadget say that after testing the pillow they found it to be too rigid for bedtime, but if you're someone who loves to talk on the phone, you might appreciate the ability to answer calls without reaching for a phone or looking for that headset.

The company is putting a $500 pricetag on this cushion, which makes it officially a novelty item only the rich can afford. It will be available until the holiday season.
