iAlarm allows users to control how they wake up in the morning by leveraging the power of OS X.

iAlarm provides 7 basic alert types for users; play iTunes, speak the headline news, speak a custom message, speak your daily events and to do items from your iCal calendar, speak the local weather, and of course a standard beep.

iAlarm harnesses the power of your mac to wake you you up with your iTunes music, local weather, news podcasts, custom messages and even an old style beep.

The new interface is simple to use, and advanced users can even create their own custom AppleScripts to be executed by iAlarm. Additionally, iAlarm can wake your mac from sleep to sound your alerts in the morning.

Here are some key features of "iAlarm":

· Beep - A simple beep will repeat 5 times or as many times as you like
· Speak - A custom message to be spoken aloud
· Weather - Current weather report for your local area (US only)
· Podcast - Wake up to NPR's Hourly News or any other Podcast you subscribe to
· iTunes - Hear music from your iTunes library and custom playlists
· AppleScript - Advanced users can select an AppleScript to be executed
