an alarm clock that looks like a normal alarm clock but is more advanced as it can remind you of important dates. When it beeps in the morning it will alternate displaying the time and a text message of what holiday it is. A off the shelf 'American' version will have all the holidays pre programmed. A usb port and or remote control could be used to program other important days. family birthdays, anniversary's, etc. It could also be set to let you know a few days before.

Programmable, internet-connected alarm clock. Pricey, but if you find yourself coming up with a lot of these ideas, it might be a worthwhile platform. [jutta, Feb 03 2008]

       Trouble with that is that they leave the US holidays programmed in, messing up an otherwise good product for all other markets.
