I have said it before and I will say it again. B&O can do no wrong with me. I can't afford much of it, it isn't always the best tech available, but I will be damned if they don't aim for the fence every time they do something.
They design, manufacture, and sell the gizmo version of show / concept cars.
@zenpoet: I'll have to disagree with you on this particular clock. Its a metal stick with squares stuck on it. Not very aesthetically pleasing to me...
@Bigbadbikernerd: That's cool. I don't get to worked up if people disagree with me. In this case though, I would certainly be very happy to have this on my desk at work, though probably not for the asking price. I love the minimalist design, and think it looks great.
Jack, not a complaint, but if a site doesn't allow embedding, you can always check "the YouTube". Chances are someone else had the same problem and uploaded it there:
Wouldn't it be fresher and just as easy to pour a glass of OJ and push down the lever on the toaster when you wake up? How hard is that?
Unless the contraption is going to do something like scramble eggs, squeeze fresh oranges, make oatmeal, or do some other time consuming task, it probably complicates your life more than simplifies it.
WAIT A SECOND!!! Isn't this just a glorified teasmade (the alarm clock that made you Tea). Bloody French just get something British and change it to fit French stereo types (Tea----> Coffee)
I enjoy having breakfast in bed. I like waking up to the smell of bacon, sue me. And since I don't have a butler, I have to do it myself. So, most nights before I go to bed, I will lay six strips of bacon out on my George Foreman grill. Then I go to sleep. When I wake up, I plug in the grill. I go back to sleep again. Then I wake up to the smell of crackling bacon. It is delicious, it's good for me, it's the perfect way to start the day.
@ubmic: I have a George Foreman grill in my room. When I wake up, I put a couple of slices of bacon onto the grill and go back to sleep. I then wake up again to the smell of sizzling bacon.
F@#k daylight savings time. And f@#k all you people who celebrate DST by running through the streets wearing nothing but garlands of hamsters draped around your nethers. First off, it IS inhumane. Second, it's embarrassing.
@YoSoyRuben: We here in the cold, dark northern latitudes see a lot of use for it. I am happy since I will now have an hour longer in the evening that isnt in shrouded in darkness. (The local farmers agree with you though, since they say it messes up the cows since who are milked an hour earlier now.)

Although its most compelling feature is clearly that it doubles as a Festivus pole.

The only problem I have been having is I'm running low on Mr. T Ceral.
