A pillow is a small (and usually soft) support for the head, usually used while sleeping in a bed, or for the body as used on a couch or chair. For those of you who like to fall asleep to music now you can make this using a musical pillow.There’s no need for any annoying headphones, just enjoy the sound from your pillow. By the way many people have found they fall asleep more quickly with relaxing music.
Ipod Pillow
The Ipod Pillow is one of the most popular musical pillos, because it looks like the well known Ipod.not only is this a pillow, described as “soft and durable” by the retailer, but you can also snuggle up and listen to your favourites on it. Plug in your own music player into the hidden pocket and listen to tracks from the internal speaker – or you can listen to the built-in FM radio. And that’s not all – the buttons on the pillow aren’t just for show, they actually work, so you can change the volume, switch to the radio or scan for station. And there’s a power off button when you finally want to drift off.
You can have one for $19.99 from ThinkGeek.

awesome post. i’ve been looking to replace my cozy tunes pillow. not sure if you’ve actually tried it, but if you’re a drooler, the fabric bleeds like crazy. This left my nice sheets stained black and i broke out in a rash from the dye on my face.
Nice post…I’ve been looking for this and now I have options. Thanks.

So did the pilloe will sleep on?
I’ve tried a few of the above, but I am happiest with a simple speaker pillow from Radio Shack. It lets you use your own pillow and is under $10

Don’t forget the ipod Carving knife!
Or rather than buying one of these things, just take a cheap pair of headphones and break off the middle piece that holds the two speakers together. Shove them inside your pillow of choice and enjoy. That’s what I’ve done and it’s very nice because I can transfer the speakers from pillow to pillow as needed.
Earbuds also work without needing to be broken, but they generally can’t get as loud and sometimes can roll over as you move, muffling the audio.
These are cool pillows but I have yet to see completely wireless pillows that feature bluetooth speakers. Built-in bluetooth speakers in plush pillows, please.
i agree with vwremglx.much more comfortable!

There is a 55% of people in USA which don’t brush their teeth after each meal. That is a too much high figure. People don’t think about their health until it is too much late
