If you've had a really late night and are really tired, you'll need a normal alarm clock as well (which is built in to the sunrise clock too - as a buzzer or as the radio). It also has a lovely sleep function where the light slowly dims to replicate the sun going down which is a lovely way to wind down at night too. yes, they are good for day to day use.

It uses an electronic time signal to ensure it's 100% accurate. Although if I'm honest, when it dies I'll go mobile! I still use an alarm clock but it is a wireless device!

And I most definitely use calendar entries as alarm calls – particularly for when I have to catch a flight or train.

Until my phone can wake me up to the sound of the pips on the Today Show, I'm not interested. Although if I sleep through that, my Blackberry automatically switches on a 0730 and starts chirruping away. Bah!
