WakeMate iPhone Video Demo

Haha, don't worry we're not planning on keeping that.

I think the Zeo uses the word "Terrible". But "3" is selected by default, so you don't see it. (Although I am not at home right now and am not actually looking at the thing. Strangely, despite looking at this menu every day, I have no memory of it.)

We have fully implemented Apple's MFi authentication scheme/protocol for all communication between the iPhone/iPad/iPodTouch platforms and the WakeMate wristband. This involves the special Apple auth IC you mentioned.

Yup, we're going to add more options.

I think that is an actual alarm tone that's already on the phone. Personally, I've found it's one of the few that are tolerable as a wake-up alarm.

The WakeMate was just sitting on my desk so it's not an accurate reading :).

The problem with SleepCycle that I found while I owned an iPhone is that you have to place it under your pillow, and the way that I sleep, I shuffle around a lot and my phone would often fall off the bed and onto the floor, rending the entire thing useless. The Wakemate is a device that you wear on your wrist; eliminating any shuffling/pillow problems.

I'm using SleepCycle until my WakeMate arrives. It's very good, but my problem is that I sleep with my girlfriend, and the iPhone seems to record both our movements. I tried last it last night without my gf sleeping (she's on a trip) and I found the graph to be quite different.

I imagine having WakeMate's wristband will negate anyone else's movements on the same bed, and record just your own.
