My experience today reminded me again why new products are often created by frustrated users and how there are inadequate products even in dumb daily activities.
I just wanted an alarm clock to wake up at 6AM on Mon/Wed/Fri. I just want to set that up once and forget about it for the next quarter (no I forgot to turn it up/down business).
After searching for 3 hours in retail stores and online, I had to find an obscure xmms based alarm, add some morning songs to it, connect my PC to my music system through wireless devices, and hold onto the remote of the music system to stop the alarm. xmms-alarm has cool features such as fade out the sound after a few minutes and stuff but wanted a button at hand to stop the alarm.
How cool it would be to have a standard alarm form factor device doing all the above ?
