I also have a one of those air beds that you blow up with the included electric pump. But I don't like the smell of the plastic and the sizes don't fit in miy bed frame and they are kinda large, so I don't use it. They are good to take on trips if you are staying at someone's house for a few days but too heavy and bulky to take on a plane trip whereas the gortex mats are lighweight enough for that.
Yes, the Sleep Number Bed has a wireless remote, but you only need to use it once to adjust the firmness. Then you just unplug the pump and don't have to use it again unless you want to adjust the firmness again. You do not have to have the pump plugged in all the time.at all. So I don't think the EMF's are an issue here. This bed is not for everyone. The foam blocks are not ideal. ut I am trying to work with this bed. We will see how it goes.
Like I said, those gortex covered camping air mattresses that blow themselves up are okay for temporary fixes. They are thin - about 1 inch thick. some are 2 inches thick. Some of them roll up and some of them fold over in 3 halves. The folding ones are wider, longer and more comfortable. They are mostly sold at REI or Recreation Equipment Inc stores.

Also, "The Sleep Number" bed isn't the only air mattress around.
There may be other manufacturers who sell air mattresses that
don't use wireless remotes.
