the problem:too bright, too loud, too big, too "old-fashioned VCR," too many buttons, numbers are too small, and the list goes on and on.
the solution (or just things i can add/change):
- anti-slip iPod/iPhone dock (basically mp3 capability)
- USB jacks (can transfer songs up to 64 MB?)
- different alarms, e.g.: one for school, one for work, one for your favorite TV show...
- (following the above) different sounds for each different alarm (ex: TV show theme)
- numerical keypad input
- AM/FM/HD radio support
- multi-language support for song titles in radio function
- small size
- large LCD screen
- LED lights?
- self-programmable snooze time e.g. "I want to snooze for exactly seven minutes."
- limited snooze time ex: two times MAX and then it won't shut up
- consider snooze button size (big or small? why?)
- on/off toggle function for the snooze button
- on/off toggle function for the alarm*
- 9V rechargeable backup battery to retain settings
- power plug?
- solar panels?
- soil powered? (sustainability!)
- EASY SET UP!!
- bigger numbers
- manual time set + radio frequency time set
- alarm sound gradually increases?
- wall mounting function?? [x]
- speech-to-set?
- number colors matter! (red or green? why?)
- sleek design (not too "old-fashioned" but "old-fashioned-with-a-twist")
- "scented" like the bacon alarm clock [x]
there we are. that's where my list of ideas stand... for now.
oh, there are also the niche-based alarm clocks:
musician alarm clock: plays the alarm off-key and keeps terrible time measures (har har har)
news anchor's clock: since news anchors have to wake up early, i'll blend the alarm clock with a coffee machine. get the joke? TROLOLOLOLOLOL. (on second thought, ix this idea. goggy person + hot coffee = crotch burn. just make sure that the alarm clock is a supplement to the coffee maker.)
EDIT: NEW IDEAS
- HOLOPHONIC PILLOW ALARM CLOCK
- trickster alarm clock (tells you the false time)
- induction/charging station alarm clock

i just thought of this. HOLOGRAPHIC ALARM CLOCK. it turns your freaking bed/room into like some scary environment or something that makes you wake up, but not too scary so you dont get a heart attack and die in your sleep.
sorry. that probably did not help that much but i had to get it out of my system @_@.
i shall try to think up some other ideas for you ;D
