So, I hear you and your two friends with Zunes got together for a bit of a jamboree the other night. That sounds real fun. Did you drink too many bottles of Bartles & Jaymes and get a headache? Poor you. Don’t sleep in tomorrow though, or you might miss out on the McDonald’s breakfast trip going down at 8:30AM.

And while I realize your alarm clock broke last week, there’s a replacement solution for you, Zune owner. iHome decided to make the ZN9, an alarm clock/radio for the Zune. It ah, tells you the time, plays the radio and….music…something. You get the point. Have fun plunking down $100 on a much-needed peripheral for a dying device!

Star peg goes in the star-shaped hole, triangle peg goes in triangle-shaped hole and hexagon goes in-well you get the point. Though it may seem as harmless as a Fisher Price toy (or target-practice), this Puzzle Alarm Clock will probably piss you off early in the morning when you’re waking up.

It’s really a simple, yet beautiful thing. As the clock strikes 6:00AM, you’ll blindly fumble for the triangle, only to find you knocked it under your bed. As your wife screams at you to “Turn that fucking thing off!”, you’ll be trying to fit the hexagon piece in that your dog chewed up two days beforehand. Six minutes later and you’ll have thrown the clock at the wall and will be in the shower getting ready for work.

All the above fun can be yours for $40.

Sure the Laser Target Alarm Clock might not be as exciting as these clocks are, so have a little heart. Besides, who doesn’t love carrying out their childhood fantasy of shooting their alarm clock every morning before hauling ass to the coal mines?

There really isn’t much to this and that’s what I love. You have a really basic clock with a bulls-eye target on top that you shoot with a laser-based remote control. Simple enough for anyone. There’s some bullshit about how it helps hand-eye coordination but it’s not like you need that when you get up; let your toothbrush take care of that. It’s out of stock currently but should be back soon for $40.

Waking up sucks. As much as you don’t want to admit it, every time you hear the alarm clock ring in the morning you cringe. Your body ceases to move and you unhappily stretch your arm out so you can hit the almighty snooze button. Day after day you’ll be subjected to this torture unless you happen to fashion a Glo Pillow.

Instead of relying on a noisy alarm to wake you, the Glo Pillow shines a supposedly “natural” beam of light onto your face via built-in LEDs. It’s not harsh either, as the pillow starts to gently glow a whole 40 minutes before your set alarm time. If it weren’t a concept, I’d pick one up just to avoid having my shitty alarm clock lighting up half the room with its display.

The XtremeMac booth has so many new products lined up on display at its huge floor booth at Macworld that it is hard to figure out what products to spend the most time on. On Tuesday, the new Luna iPod Alarm Clock Audio System is the winner. You have probably seen some nice iPod alarm clocks before, but it’s some of the smaller features that set this one apart from the rest. One of these features that stood out was that you can choose for the Luna to ramp up sound instead of just blasting music from the start. You can also choose how long or short you want it to ramp up for. Check back for updates as they keep rolling in! — Nik Gomez
