    They could've easily added in Wi-Fi so you can pull down news/weather to make full use of that WVGA screen.

    @defn: Very good point. Would they have to rely on the NOAA? What if they change formats-- would Sony be responsible for firmware update rollouts?

    I think you can see where this is headed-- this could get complicated very fast, though I agree with you, I want the news and weather, dammit!

    @iomatic: It could connect to a Sony server to get weather and news. Also an automatic alarm for dangerous weather would be nice, especially for people who live in tornado alley.

    @Tank: I'm not sure I'd be so reliant on that. We have a Sony clock/radio that is supposed to be self-setting using some OTA protocol but it's NEVER set itself to the right time. It's always a good 12 minutes or so fast.

    This looks pretty nice actually. I mean, who DOESN'T want an alarm with a nice sized color screen and stuff. Seriously, I would go spend $200 on this if I had the money.

    I actually need a new alarm clock. I was going to go with a Zune HD this fall but it looks like I'm considering an Iphone again.

    It is amazing how long the idea of an alarm clock that gets brighter has been around yet the execution has never been good. This is one of the better looking designs. It still looks like a milk jug.

    Here is how you make the idea work: produce an alarm clock with a power outlet on the back so it turns on a NORMAL lamp slowly. I'll take 20% on sales, thanks.

    Gah! $199? I've got 4 alarm clocks already. iPhone, skylight, Jack Russell, and a 2 year old. A nice gradual wake-up would be nice but it sure isn't going to happen in my house.

    I have nothing against old-school Star Wars, but I think the Vader helmet is overused. Can I get a little love for this happy-lookin' fella? This'll sure as hell freak you up every morning.
