Hasbro’s Room Tech Clock, which looks like a mix between an iPod and a Goomba, is an alarm clock with a wireless link to the Room Tech Lamp. When the alarm goes off, two things happen; the alarm clock will either stomp its fists on the table making an awful racket, playback the radio or pump out tunes from a connected MP3 player. Secondly, the Room Tech Lamp, which is styled like a shroom-Martian hybrid, will be activated, bringing illumination to your dank, dingy room.

The Room Tech Lamp has a touch sensitive domed head, which allows the user to turn the light on, as well as choose from a variety of colors simply by touching it. Additionally, the lamp has a speaker built in that can be hooked up to your MP3 player. The Room Tech duo are due out in September and will retail for £39.99 ($79) each. Given Gizmodo writers mostly work from their beds, the biggest chore in the morning is turning on the light; we’re just too lazy to pull the blinds up. Frankly, how we got by without the Room Tech series is quite beyond us. We’re already in line. [Pocket-lint]
