    A very easy way to set your clock. Just talk to it!

    This is a real easy to use clock. You can check or set time and alarms using only your voice. Just say: “Hello iTalk” and then the command you want. It recognizes 8 voice commands. “What time is it?” - “Set time” - “Set alarm” - “Alarm sound” (you can choose 1 of 3 sounds after the clock demos them for you) -“What time is the alarm set to?” -“What day is it?” - “Help” (In case you can’t remember the commands – and “Snooze” (when the alarm is sounding, say “Snooze”. Alarm will sound again in 9 minutes.) I like the Snooze command best because you don’t have to even turn over to see the clock. We reviewed another talking clock the iMoshi a month or two ago, but this one has an advantage over the iMoshi. The iMoshi was very tech looking, but it was difficult to see the LCD numbers from certain angles, or in bright light. The iTalk clock has large 2” numbers on red LED with a hi/lo dimmer. This makes it a big help for the visually Impaired. It uses standard AC power (120V 60Hz 5WA) and you can back up the time with 3 “AAA” batteries (not included). Dimensions: 8” Wide x 4-1/4” High x 2-3/4” Deep. $49.99
