Altaz Internet Clock Radio Features 3.5-Inch Touchscreen

While some alarm clocks out there may use "out of the box" ideas to wake you up, some of them like to keep it simple. The Altaz Internet Clock radio may feature plenty of extras in the package, but at its core it's still just a clock. Fortunately, though, if you do happen to wake up on the wrong side of the bed, hopefully you'll be able to lighten the mood with your favorite pictures displayed right there for you, or maybe the weather forecast for the day. Either way, the Internet Clock Radio has the power to try and give you what you want.

The new Internet Clock radio allows for you to interact with it via a 3.5-inch touchscreen display. You'll be able to access photos from Flickr, as well as get a full weather forecast when you need it. The radio will also let you play music, watch videos, and access "all the Internet has to offer." The result is "endless entertainment while serving as a source of information that users will find both enjoyable and useful." The clock also features an SD card reader, integrated WiFi, and a built-in battery. You can find it on Amazon right now for an MSRP of $99.
