>Oh please please please make a smart alarm that will make me up by only vibrating on my wrist. I want to be able to wake up early for stuff without having to wake up my wife and dogs.

I bought a Withings watch (Nokia owned, they also make scales) basically for that feature.

The main caveat is that the control app (the watch has no buttons) only supports setting 1 alert p -- and you even have to change it manually if you want a different hour the next day, can't preprogram different alerts for various weekdays.

That said, it was just $100, and Nokia is supposed to revamp the models soon-ish. I'll go for an Apple Watch next though...
