This clock has many functionalities and a very long descriptive name: LCD Alarm Clock and Calendar, with Indoor Temperature Display and Pen Holder. Clocks are all over the place and, since most people have a computer on their desk, the calendar feature is also easily available. But knowing the temperature fulfills an old curiosity of mine, and being able to save space with the included pen holder is a plus. Also, I like the little “basket” design. It gives it a little personality.
