i would hate to have one of these....i think its retarded...and people should learn a lil bit of discipline and wake up when they should (if its important enough)

Ms Nanda came up with "Clocky" - a runaway alarm clock that goads its bleary-eyed owners into leaving their beds. To turn Clocky off, you have to find it.

When the snooze alarm is pushed, Clocky rolls off the bedside table, tumbles to the floor and, thanks to shock-absorbing materials and rubber wheels, races away from the bed. It bumps into objects, repositions itself and eventually comes to rest in a place far enough away from the bed that its owner will be forced to get up to find it when the alarm sounds a second time. A built-in microprocessor randomly programs the clock's speed, distance and routes, so that it won't land in the same place twice.

I don't believe in alarm clocks. People should only awaken naturally, when their internal biological clocks tell them it's time to begin living the day. If that means missing half a day or a whole day of work, so be it. Sleep and rest should not be sacrifised for chores.

I would still like to buy one of these clocks simply for the opportunity to storm out of bed and beat the **** out of it in a sleepy rage. Yeah, you best be running you stupid clock.

I think these would sell like hotcakes because people like me would always be breaking them out of fury.
