Waking up to a simulated sunrise

We felt a tad guilty for having just posted some tips to help you call in sick, so here is a more productive link that may help us all wake up in time to make it to work.

Gizmag has posted an item on "the Wake-up Light," a device that "emits light that gradually increases to the intensity you have selected, simulating the rising sun in your bedroom thus gently preparing your body to wake up." But don't throw out the alarm clock just yet: The light will apparently be available only in Europe at first.
