Cool Devices

I just found out about a radio alarm clock designed by one Hayat Benchenaa. It's a little light/clock combo that hangs above your bed. When the alarm is set, a small light dims and the music fades as you fall asleep. When it goes off, you reach up and tap it to activate the snooze. Then the thing rises about a foot, lets you snooze, and goes off again. So you get up a little more to hit the snooze again. This process is repeated until the thing reaches the ceiling, making you get up and pull it down to deactivate it.

I found this thing on one of those super-tech design pages, so I dunno if you can even buy it anywhere, but it's called the Sfera.
