Goodness knows it’s hard enough to wake up on the best of days, let alone the dark dismal ones we face each winter. Perhaps that’s the reason why there are so many different types of alarm clock on the market, each trying to help with man’s oldest problem. How to get up in time for the day’s mammoth hunt? But this new product looks like an interesting solution.

Let’s just say that you’re feeling a little under the geek at the moment. You know, those times when you feel you’re not really being appreciated for who you truly are? There are all sorts of solutions for the syndrome. You can pull on an active equalizer glowing LED T-Shirt, you can buy a new set of pen protectors or you can go the whole hog and plump down your cash for one of these puppies.

If, at any time in your fully engaged day, you have stopped to ask yourself exactly how far this ‘technology revolution’ will go, we suspect you’ll come to some conclusion based around a world populated with indolent humans being served by hordes of servile robots, catering to every whim. Until recently we may have scoffed at this idea, but it’s now looking more and more likely as time passes. Take for instance, this new Microbot Push product we’ve just encountered.

Sometimes things are so obvious you wonder why it took so long to arrive. Like oven chips. So we’re amazed that this new fast cooking Pizza Box Oven is only arriving at the station now. Why couldn’t it have been there for us during exam finals? Sigh. Anyhoo, whatever the reason, it’s here now and bound to make a lot of people very happy.
