I have written about a lot of new tech products, but this one is just crazy. I like what it does, but someone has to redesign it. Hushme is a new gadget that keeps your mobile conversations private when you are in public. The trouble is that, to me, it looks like a muzzle.
The founders of the company worked with a product development company called ARTKB to execute their idea. They wanted to invent a gadget that allows people to talk on their cells without anyone in the vicinity hearing them.
Hushme muffles your voice or plays sounds while you’re talking. Hushme has a companion app that allows you to choose sounds and adjust volume. Hushme features wireless in-ear earbuds with a built-in microphone.
Hushme will be available later this year at $249 and $149 during a crowdfunding campaign in a few months from now.

Oh, for goodness sake! This is just plain nuts! Why not just text?
