Behead Your Alarm Clock!
I love that two in one gadget from Japan. Not only is the design cute and trendy, the functionality is a must for gadget lovers.
The clock performs your basic functions as a radio, alarm, alerts you to the temperature, etc. After waking in the dawn, take off the head (haha, love Japan!) and carry it with you to listen to the radio on your dawn commute, at the gym, etc.
At 5250 yen, a great deal for both an alarm clock and a mini radio!
