The Radio Shack sells a talking wristwatch that can be set digitally along
with its alarm for $10. It's very good, is made in China, speaks English,
and crows like a rooster at the alarm time, also announcing the time.
When you press its button to stop its crowing, you can also turn on your
radio.
There are Radio Shacks all over the US and affiliated stores in other
countries as well as a Website RadioShack.com.
