If you have ever slept in in a foreign city and missed yoru flight or train then you know my pain.
Lighted LCD Travel Alarm

The sad thing is my misery could have been easily prevented with something like this.

This litttle travel alarm clock is both cheap (at least cheaper than paying for another ticket when you miss your flight) and it even has an eery glow-in-the-dark face so you can tell what time it is in the pitch black of your hotel room.

It’s $19.95 over at First Street.
