Alarm Clock for Geeks

I've just had another one of my fabulous ideas. This one's an alarm clock for geeks.

Geeks don't like to get up early. It's a well-known fact that geeks like the night-time, closed curtains and unopened windows. So when a geek gets a job and has to atune their body clock to the Real World, they sometimes have punctuality issues.

So what I was thinking is that we need to create Geek Alarm Clocks(TM), which don't just play some random noise on being triggered, but instead play an ident, like the Mac noise, or my sony vaio noise, or the windows start-up theme.

Upon hearing the geek-specific sound, the geek will enter directly into start-up mode, causing the geek to jump straight out of bed and into the kitchen where they will run the strong coffee application. The fag and scratch app is optional. But the shave, shower and sh*t* app will be mandatory.

Preferably the Geek Alarm Clock(TM) will be a piece of hardware implanted in the geek's ear, although my early protoypes are predicted to resemble this:
