Awaken, a pretty neat application that turns your Mac into a ridiculously expensive alarm clock, has just entered its beta stage for version 3.0. For an application that’s sole purpose is fulfilled by just about every gadget on the planet, it actually seems like a pretty cool setup. It might beat my current solution of dragging a song file to the desktop, then telling iCal to open it up every morning (there’s no better way to hate a song than to hear it every day at the time when your wrath levels are at their highest).
With a sleep timer, iTunes playlist support, Apple Remote support, and a cool FrontRow-esque interface option, you can try it for free for two weeks. After that, Awaken 3 costs $8.95.
God help you... try this.
