I usually hate alarm clocks, because they make me get out of bed in the morning way before I'm ready to. But the iD85 App-enhanced Dual Alarm Clock Radio from iHome makes the task a lot easier. You can play your iPad, iPHone or iPod, charge it, and wake up or sleep to a custom playlist or the radio. There are 12 AM/FM presets.
It's cool to open your eyes to a playlist (although there is no "off" button to make the kids who've crashed in your bed stop whining because you've woken up to Springsteen instead of Radio Disney). The stereo sound is full range and excellent quality, and there's even a remote control; you can even use it to press "snooze" in the morning, although being able to lie in bed and press snooze is a dangerous thing.
The iHome people are giving away one iD85 to a reader. To enter, leave a comment about your favorite song and/or group to wake up to.

I wake up to the energize music clip on my old dinosaur of a cell phone. Then I listen to the radio while I make breakfast for the kids.

Probably would love to wake up to something classical - I have to "Ease" into the day. Alarm clocks have a serious habit of getting broken with shreiking alarms - LOL! I am also one of those that shuts them off immediately. Hee! Hee!

ReplyDeleteI don't really have a favorite song to wake up too. I would just sing it in bed. I have to use a actual very annoying alarm to make myself get up. But my youngest girls toothbrush plays. "I'm walking on sunshine" when she brushes her teeth so I hear that every morning.

ReplyDeleteI never had music to wake up to, just the standard annoying buzzer. I think I might like Brown Eyed Girl for a wake up song.
