We’ve come a long way since the simple alarm clocks that just rung or beeped. Technology has been very friendly to the oversleepers and companies keep coming up with the most cunning ways to make sure you get up.

The Laser Target Alarm Clock requires you to be awake enough to aim at a bull’s eye with a laser, which makes sense. I know I couldn’t do it when I’m sleepy, so by the time I could really see the damn clock that’s disturbing my sleep, I would already be awake. Since it’s difficult to impossible to create a reflex to accurately aim a laser, this has potential of working in the long run, too. I just wonders what happens if the remote runs out of battery… You might end up with an alarm that never stops. Would a laser point work?

Do you really need a gadget that does a billion more-or-less-useless things? Do you really carry 3 or 5 separate objects and they’re so heavy that you need a 3- or 5-in-1 device? Ok, if you say so…

The 5 in 1 Gagdet Pen does it all. It has a mini torch, a laser pointer, a banknote checker, a stylus and a pen, wow! I couldn’t leave home without them!

Honestly now, it’s not totally useless, I can see how a pen or a torch or even a laser pointer can be of use, but… Stylus? Banknote checker?! Come on. At least it’s not too expensive…
