But on the topic at hand, I would buy one of these, or at least, I definitely would if I were still in High School. On state standardized test days (normally a half-week occurring a few times per year), I (and many peers) would inevitably finish in about 2 of 4 hours. Of course we were obligated to stay in the room and remain completely silent for the entire 4, so I would fold a jacket such that it fashioned a very poorly-functioning version of this.
The main issue while using a jacket was having proper respiration between my face-down head and the desk. If this product solves this when it comes out (maybe I can try it out somewhere? Brookstone or some such?), I can see myself considering it.
On a more serious note, this is really a "how to get your stuff stolen" hat.
Club individual on head, yank thing, run away.
I was thinking more along the lines of Guantanamo, but... hey, it was good for a morning chuckle.
