Definitely looks like it could be an app running on an iPad or other tablet, sitting in a dock. I'd be happy to pay good money for a proper techy alarm clock app on iPad, since I've tried a bunch of those apps and none of them have been suitable. I've spent more on alarm clock apps than if I'd just bought a new physical alarm clock! And yes, I've also bought several new physical "atomic" alarm clocks....

The screen needs to be OLED or high quality backlit LCD. This display looks like it would be much too bright at night, even when turned down to the lowest brightness possible.

It also need to let you change the color of the interface, so that I could have a red that doesn't destroy my night vision, instead of green that would.

Thank you for this comment! I do agree there is an issue with the screen in bedroom situation. It is interesting to hear that people would pay for this as an app.

About changing the colour and otherwise customising themes. Yes.
