When I first saw Clocky on Engadget and Gizmodo, way back in the prototype days it looked more like a folically enhanced furby with wheels. Now in production and closer to a launch date it appears to have received a hair cut and dropped in a can of orange paint. For those of you who are not familiar with Clocky. It is an alarm clock for people who have trouble getting out of bed. If you hit the snooze button, Clocky will roll off of the nightstand, fall to the floor, and run around the room, searching for a place to hide. Making you get your butt out of bed to find it and turn it off. Sounds like the most annoying alarm clock in the world? Maybe. But will it do it the job? You bet.
Price: $50

This is great, but I’m still waiting for the day they finally create the George Jetson toaster bed.

Just get your ass out of bed. This contraption would get hurled into the nearest wall if I had to wake up to a cute and orange alarm clock.

LOVE THIS concept!! It’s a great prank present.
You’d have to give it to someone who has room to walk around in their room tho’, so ‘Clocky’ could actually perform it’s antics.
LOL - can’t wait to get one!

I just took the speaker out of mine, added a longer speaker wire and put the speaker in my room and the alarm clock in the other room. I put the speaker right above my head just enough that I can’t reach it laying down and it is super loud. Hide all the wires and it works wonders.

For the last 10 yrs. or so I haven’t used an alarm clock,I must’ve developed a natural internal alarm clock.I think some of these clocks are kool and very innovative and may even buy 1 or 2 of em even if just for the novelty of em.
