This trim device offers comfort and convenience to people
who crave a good night's sleep, who enjoy playing music or
tuning into radio/TV programs in bed, and who learn by listening
to educational tapes, etc.
Pillowsonic consists of a set of quality,
digital microspeakers concealed in a specially
designed foam "sound swatch." A user slips the "sound
swatch" under his bed pillow or sheet, then connects Pillowsonic's
standard mini jack to any sound device (e.g. tape of CD player, radio,
radio-alarm clock, TV, etc.). Instantly,
the user is surrounded by music or other favorite sounds as clear audio
emerges from within his pillow -- with no awkward or entangling headphones
required.
“Tens of
millions of Americans suffer from insomnia and tinnitus or ringing in the ears,
as reported by authorities in health and scientific fields. This leads us
to believe the market is vast for this kind of product, ” said Ernesto Contenti, product developer.
"During our extensive market testing, we found that using Pillowsonic with the right sounds has
proven helpful for many individuals in the process of falling
asleep without the aid of medications. Also, it has been
a relief for tinnitus sufferers who no longer need to disturb their
spouses with increasingly higher volumes of white noise in their
bedroom.
“The market for Pillowsonic extends far beyond insomniacs
and tinnitus sufferers,” Contenti continued.
“Therapists are attesting to the value of our product
as a wellness tool for individuals with autism, ADD, sensory
integration dysfunction and other conditions.

“While fulfilling various
therapeutic needs, Pillowsonic
brings enjoyment to people of all ages in many types of situations
and locations. Children and their
parents, for example, can benefit from our product,” Contenti said. “Parents slide Pillowsonic under their child's pillow, either within the
pillowcase or beneath the sheet, to play lullabies and favorite
stories. The little guys simply love the sound
effects. They’ve been known to hug their pillows and fall asleep—in
minutes!
“We believe Pillowsonic has strong market
potential—as a recreational or therapeutic tool and perfect gift for the person
who thinks he has everything. Pillowsonic is here to help
people slumber naturally and healthfully – in harmony with mind and body.”
Pillowsonic retails in select catalogs and on the Internet (http://www.pillow-phonic.com/) for $19.95. See product sheet below for details and hyperlink above for
