A soft seashell shaped and patterned pillow complete with a small internal audio unit and quilted seashell lip.

Upon resting your head on the pillow the sounds of waves can be heard lapping against the shore through a quilted broad lip similar to a Conch shell.

Is timed to switch off after a short period of time.

Reset when needed with the sleep button as not to sound throughout the night.

I found only one, which is shaped for ergonomic support of the neck. I googled white noise pillows.btw.

I like your idea better in that, the style of the shell could also be adaptable for neck support, for side sleepers, and have a thinner edge for stomach sleepers.

...and the sound of constantly running water makes you feel the need to ?

Actually, [flappy], I love this idea so much I'm going to look into creating a prototype. Do you know where I should look for a micro sound system? Radio Shack?

Thanks[dentworth] :) I'm in the UK, don't think we have Radio Shack.The website looks like it might have the goods though.

Not quite the same is it? Clinging to a water pipe.

there's an exposed water main in the middle of my street - you can use my pillow as long as you wash your hair.

If I know the sound will stop at some point, then I wait for it, and wait for it. And when it stops, I hit the button and wait some more. Please include an option to let the sound run all night. Like a real shell. +
