PerCushion Pillow Phone

"Just when you thought you'd seen everything in the world of mobile phones comes this, the PerCushion Pillow Phone. Basically, it's a pillow (i.e. the thing you use to sleep on) with a Bluetooth device embedded inside it that connects to your mobile phone (i.e. the thing you do not use to get a good night's sleep!).

Not only Bluetooth - the PerCushion also comes with an integratged microphone, loudspeaker, rechargeable lithium ion battery and LEDs that indicate whether the pillow's receiving a call or not (though presumably the loud ringtone screaming into your ear as you sleep might also indicate a call coming in!)"

Crazy and lazy idea.
