JVC is now shipping the UX-VJ3B speaker system. It not only looks awesome, but the UX-VJ3B has dual-dock support for the iPad and iPhone at the same time. It’s also affordable at $199.99 and will mount your iPad and iPhone side by side.

This spy camera is scary because it looks just like a Sony alarm clock. In fact, I have the Sony model that it is imitating in my home. I hope no one has been spying. This hidden camera records 720p HD videos in MPEG4 format and stores them on an SD card (16GB provided).

It will give you a time and date stamp and is motion activated. I don’t think that anyone would even suspect it was more than a clock, especially when it functions as a regular alarm clock/radio when it isn’t spying. It will cost you $329.89.

Royal College of Art graduate Ki Hyun Kim must really like coffee. He designed the Alternative Alarm Clock, which allows you to wake up to the smell of coffee instead of beeping sounds that make you want to throw your clock.

The Alternative Alarm Clock is also a combination alarm/power strip, allowing you to plug in any electrical device you want like a lamp or a radio. When the alarm is activated, the electric outlet supplies power to the electrical devices.

If you hate getting up in the morning(Don’t we all?) then this alarm clock is for you. The Mr Bump Alarm Clock may look like a South Park character, but he’s actually from the Mr Men series of children’s books. Apparently he bumps into things a lot.

As soon as the Mr Bump Alarm Clock goes off, just pick him up and throw him against the wall, and the alarm will stop. But hey that’s true of most alarm clocks if you throw it hard enough. Just $15.

The iDM71 iPad/iPad 2 Case has a stereo speaker system built into it thanks to flat NXT stereo speakers. The case is made of a faux leather material, and will fold into six positions, so no matter what typing angle you prefer, it’s all good. It can also be used as a movie stand. The iHome iDM71 iPad/iPad 2 Case with Built-in Rechargeable Stereo Speakers will cost $99.99.

iHome is also offering a cool new iPhone dock, the iA17 App-enhanced Color Changing Stereo FM Alarm Clock Radio for iPhone/ iPod. This alarm clock features a “wake-to-color” mode. The translucent cabinet will change color, with five colors available. The alarm clock also has an FM radio, and it is an app enhanced device that works with the iHome+Sleep app, and the iHome+Radio app. The iA17 alarm cloak radio is $99.

Nyko has unveiled some new gaming gear. Zoom for Kinect is a pair of clip-on glasses that lets you get 40 percent closer to the sensor bar with no loss of function. Then there’s Nyko’s Play Clock, a charging dock for Nintendo’s 3DS that also functions as an alarm clock.

Nyko also introduced a trio of new extended battery packs for the 3DS. There’s the Shock n’ Rock that brings three times the juice, “added vibration feedback,” and four speakers. The Power Grip is an ergonomic external battery that also triples the 3DS’ battery life. The Game Boost battery snaps on for an extra hour or two of life. Prices and availability remain unknown for now.

Anyone who risks actual money being shredded in their alarm clock must have serious problems waking up. This should help give you incentive though. We’re not sure if this even exists or who created it, but it’s a neat idea.

The alarm clock starts shredding the bill that’s been inserted at the appointed time unless you wake up to stop it. How much would you pay to shred money while you sleep? I can’t see anyone buying this.

If you have an iPad, you need something to dock it in. Acoustic Research has just the thing with the ARS35i iPad docking system, which is also compatible with iPods, iPhones and MP3 players. It has you covered.

This docking station also features a motorized moving arm that holds your iPad and will rotate it into a vertical or a horizontal position. Other features include a video output port and an alarm clock function. It will cost you $129.99.

See that alarm dock for your iPhone 4? It does nothing at all. Just holds your iPhone 4 and gives it a place to call home while you sleep or do other things. Just sits there like… Well, like a lump of wood. It comes from designer Jonas Damon and is made from beautiful beach wood.

Your iPhone is going to act as your alarm clock either way right? Might as well give it a decent spot to sit in and class up your place. It won’t charge your device, won’t pump out awesome sound, but it does come with a free app to turn your iPhone into one of those clocks with the flipping numbers.

Is your own watch feeling a bit too practical? Not silly enough? Well, if that’s the case, check out the Eole watch concept from designer Julien Moise. This watch is powered by blown air, displaying the time only when you want to see it, thereby saving battery power.

It’s easy to say that this watch blows, but the truth is it’s a neat concept to conserve battery life. Even so, you will look pretty damn silly blowing for the time. The only thing that could make it worse would be if it made a kazoo type noise with each blow. There’s also a weather indicator and alarm function.

If you are looking for a Digital Photo Frame, check out the Rollei Designline 4083 8-inch digital photo frame, which features a 4:3 aspect ratio and a resolution of 800×600 pixels for all of your images.

It is available in black or white and features an alarm clock, a calendar, an SD card slot and a remote controller. There’s also a slide show function with 15 different transition effects. Rollei will make this one available at the end of this month for €59.95 ($84).

Good news for those of you in Japan, if you want, you can now purchase the LG FX166. The company will be releasing this micro Hi-Fi and 3D Blu-ray combo later this week.

The FX166 comes equipped with not only a DVD/Blu-Ray video player with 3D support, but also DLNA support, an FM radio and the always appreciated alarm clock. This music player is also compatible with your iPod touch and iPhone.

When you need to send in deadly robots, holograms might be the answer. As it is right now, authorizing and targeting air strikes is a process that can be bureaucratic. Sometimes it takes lawyers, intelligence analysts, air controllers, and commanders at multiple layers to get it done.

Well DARPA has a new idea. Give the job to one guy on the ground who can control a drone or manned plane that’s circling above. A single man is low profile enough to slip into areas that need slipping into without alarming the locals and giving away his position. The soldier would use the goggles to view markers and call in airstrikes.

The hacking group known as “Anonymous” has announced that it will turn its attention toward Sony for the legal action it has taken against hackers for hacking the PS3 console. Not good news for Sony as we saw what this group was willing to do a few months back over Julian Assange and Wikileaks.

Anonymous wrote to Sony, “your recent legal action against our fellow hackers, Geohot and Graf_Chokolo has not only alarmed us, it has been deemed wholly unforgivable.”

Thanko comes up with a lot of strange gadgets, but at least this time it is something useful. This pair of earphones features an integrated alarm so if your music puts you to sleep, you can always wake yourself up again.

It’s probably most useful for travelers and commuters and anyone with narcolepsy. But if you tend to fall asleep while wearing your earphones a lot, you might want to listen to something more upbeat or drink some coffee.
