Huh? Is this some sort of a product? My perfect push up is free: I use the floor.
Some of us can't use the floor because it's actually pretty hard on the wrists. I don't use anything special though, I just grab a pair of small handheld weights and use them as "handles" on the floor. I can keep my wrists straight that way, and do the pushups without pain.
I agree...
Just overpriced gadgets to make something seem easier... a proper pushup is done with your palms flat on the floor.

Having used and now owning one I would say the perfect push up is worth it only for one reason: it attacks your shoulder muscles, all of them, properly. Your shoulder muscles expand and contract in a spiral. The perfect push up allows for your arms to rotate and for the muscles to expand and contract properly helping them build strength and mass. I would wait to get it for a few weeks because I heard they will be dropping from 40.00 to 20.00.
For those of you who aren't in the know, here is what the OP is talking about.
I've used them, and they're okay. They do give you the option of working more muscles than a traditional pushup, and they are definitely easier on the wrists. The main plus (for me) is that because you're off the ground a bit further you can get a deeper stretch than you would with trad. pushups.
That being said, WalMart usually carries a knock off brand for $20.
