Give me a break for crying out loud! As if we haven’t seen enough iPod accessories already, this one takes the cake for the most awkward and geekiest gadget out there. I’ll let the description introduce the product to you, since it does such a perfect job.

“Our soft, plush iPod pillow doubles as a WORKING radio. Use its built-in FM scan radio with audio speaker, or connect it to your iPod or CD player, computer, or other audio device and enjoy great sound.

Our iPod pillow has real working buttons. Press POWER to turn on the radio, press SCAN to change the radio station, press RADIO/MP3 to change between the radio or portable music source plugged into the jack cord, and press RESET to restore the factory settings. The volume can be adjusted by pressing the red up and down triangles on either side of VOLUME. Shaped like an iPod, this soft pillow is white with a shiny blue screen and grey click wheel and the back is silver. Uses 2 AA batteries (not included). Our unique iPod pillow is 16" high by 9" wide.”

After reading the product outlook, I’m speechless…in disbelief. Ooh, I get it. This is one of those gadgets that are designed to annoy your friends, isn’t it? Can you imagine how hilarious it would be to give this to a friend, cover it up, connect it to the speaker and make him use the pillow? He won’t know what hit him. Now that I think about it, maybe it’s not such an outrageous idea after all.

It’s available immediately for $17.99.
