Love. It.
(and the pair, of course.)
Likely have to forego it at a C-note, but it has to be the classiest Alarm Clock evahh. Good fiend, er find! Now if I could just get an mp3 of the messages ... |

Got links to mp3 samples on the page

Was hoping for a whole slew, as..
Be surprised, each morning?
Sir, sir ... I bitterly regret the interruption of your REM sleep adventures, for return merely to this tawdry planet. |

Seen this?
Seems to be MP3s of a "The World of Jeeves and Wooster" album. The site's in Russia - dunno if there are any nefarious issues with the page, but it seems harmless enough to the naked eye.

Thanks, here's a d/l for the songs listed at .ru site

(no links accompany the listing at .ru -- except for theme; also per Source) I see there's more to research; still wonder about how many wake-up calls Fry might have recorded (beyond the demos at Hammacher.) A CD set for random-play should do nicely.. |

$70 @ ThinkGeek
but they're out of stock of the "For Sir" model and won't have any in time for Xmas gift giving.
http://www.thinkgeek...fice/lights/aef3/ 9 MP3s on their page. Hmm - this is interesting Some "Sir" models will start up in "Madam" mode. Modify this setting by holding down the rosette while inserting the batteries until the speaker clicks |

More enticing yet.. thanks!
Fortunately they are -as you say- Out just now.. and I see there are lots more rise&shine selections.. So,
(As the Intelligent-Thermostellar-Bomb of Dark Star riposted, upon being read a copy of Genesis...) I must think on this ... ... Might have consoled the idiot-Consumer-[i] noisemaker-within ... with a pair of KiIller Rabbit slippers? But fortunately too, they are a bit pricey for a lark.. whereas Fry is forever! |

My dad loves his
I got my folks hooked on W&J during one of their stateside visits. Dad took to calling their Roomba Jeeves, so I picked him up the clock for Xmas. On a few of our iChats he's commented on what Jeeves said that morning.

he's still talking about it
A couple days ago during our iChat video call he mentioned how much he likes his Jeeves clock.
