I can't speak for you but for me this device lost all its street cred with that picture up top of the woman looking quite delighted to have been awoken at 6:34 a.m.

Do you know anyone one like that?

And are you still on speaking terms with them?

Didn't think so.

From the website:
    Voice Recognition Alarm Clock
    Hands-free alarm clock responds to your spoken commands.

    Wake to three alarms, a recorded message, sound effects - even your TV.

    It not only recognizes spoken instructions, it replies out loud - telling you what time it is, if the alarms are set and more.

    Three individual alarms can be set to multiple sound effects including recorded personal messages - or choose to have the clock turn on your TV remotely to wake you up.

    Easy-read backlit display shows the time and day of the week and features a voice-activated night light.

    Trainable in any language, this unique alarm clock responds out loud to voice commands: “What time is it”; “Any alarms”; “Record memo”; “Cancel alarm”; “Snooze”; “Nightlight”; “Play memo”; and “Replay alarms.”

    Plugs into a standard outlet, with battery back-up in case of power failure (uses 3 C batteries, not included).

    4"W x 3"D x 7.1"H.

I was having the best fantasy about actually maybe getting one of these, until I thought a bit more about how it could turn my TV on.

That's pretty scary stuff here in TechnoDolt™ world, cause enough to nip this dream in the bud.

You go ahead.
