Do you dream about lying in bed, hearing the alarm go off, and with just a few spoken words, you're back in dreamland? I do. I've got one of those wonderfully fancy bedside audio system/clocks that doesn't even have buttons, so for $400, I'm forced to find the remote to snooze or silence the alarm. That nightmare has ended.

The iTalk is a digital alarm clock that uses TimeSet voice technology for setting the clock, snoozing, or even asking what day it is. The system is said to understand any English voice without having a learning curve for your voice. Just say "Hello iTalk" and then one of the eight phrases it understands, such as "set alarm," "snooze," or for those lazy weekends, "what day is it?" You gotta love it. The clock has a battery backup, alarm volume setting, and adjustable-length snooze.

The iTalk will be for sale on Amazon.com starting in June for $49.99. Would you feel silly talking to your clock every morning?
