Alarm clock hell
funkyfish06 thinks: If i was to design an alarm clock it'd be the most complex thing ever although simple to use. It needs to know when its a weekday or a weekend so it doesnt go off at 6am on the weekend, have a projector built in, play music to wake me up, but i wish it'd could read my mind so when i turn it off and go back to sleep in 5 minutes it'd go off again. Oh yeah and open my curtains for me so i have light when i get up!

itssimple thinks: Oh how nice it would be to have a WiFi based clock. No more worries about changing time or having the correct time. It would know when the weekends were so as not to set off the alarm. Maybe even give you the local weather and traffic updates while you're getting ready for work in the morning.

Dream thinks: I have two cheap plastic Alarm Clocks that I bought from a Charity Shop for £1.49 each. If I have a Job, or have to get up early for any other reason, I set both Clocks. If the Battery fails in one the other one still works :P

simpleenough thinks: As long as it's reasonably priced, I'd buy it!

donnam thinks: Well, most cell phones now, at least here in the US, come with an alarm clock feature, so the time change is taken care of for you and a power failure generally won't be a problem, unless you are in the midst of charging a dead cell battery. But I agree that alarm clocks are quite annoying at times.

badmojo thinks: It's amazing that such a simple device that is really, in most cases, a necessity is not designed around the needs of the user. There are very inexpensive ways to incorporate these unique features without adding a tremendous amount of additional cost.

Alarm clock hell
dingo thinks: i always buy cheap alarm clocks and then regret it after using it for a week or two, but i refuse to put in the effort or pay an unreasonable amount for an alarm clock with so many features. they would have to be well thought out and easy to use before i spend my hard earned cash.

Alarm clock hell
Gem thinks: I can't think of a time when I said to myself "I wish I had a sophisticated alarm clock with a multitude of features". The truth is, when we go to the store and buy an alarm clock, we pick one with a few features that is reasonably priced. Very little thought is given to this purchase even if it is a product we use on a daily basis.

Alarm clock hell
John thinks: We have to remeber the purpose of Alarm Clock to wake the user up. any benefits after this are surplus to requirements and could even create problems. as for wifi-weather, really come on all a clock needs is a back up battery as for weather "look out the window", too much emphsis is being made on technology that will mummy our exsistance but not actually improve the quality of our lives.

challoners1 thinks: give me a wind up clock work alarm anyday
