Ask HN: Has anyone received a Wakemate yet?
I couldn't sleep the other night and I remembered that I'd pre-ordered it about a year ago... Has anyone got one yet from HN and what are your thoughts?
- thomas11 16y agoThey aren't even produced yet: http://blog.wakemate.com/ http://blog.wakemate.com/ And I'll only believe that they are shipped and work roughly as advertised when I read reports from people who got one, if ever. The WakeMate team has done a terrible job at estimation and at communication.
- thehodge 16y agoI thought they had sent out the first batch to the first first pre orders in october?
- shykes 16y agoI received my test unit several weeks ago. There are still a few rough edges, but they work as advertised. It's fascinating to see raw data on the way you sleep.
- zackattack 16y agoSo you wake up feeling great every morning?
- mmelin 16y agoPre-ordered when first announcement was posted here on HN in Nov '09. Was really surprised to see a print ad for Wakemate in the latest issue of Wired, where it seemed as if they were shipping normally. Still no sign of mine, but I really don't have any expectations anymore after a full year of broken promises.

- wrcampbell 16y agoI also pre-ordered one last December...still waiting.
- kule 16y agoIt's possibly not as good but this looks like a not-so-advanced version of the same thing: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sleep-cycle-alarm-clock/id320606217?mt=8 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sleep-cycle-alarm-clock/id320...
- cfinke 16y agoI ordered one for my wife's birthday in January... last year. It's a good thing I had a backup gift ready.
- gnemeth 16y agoThe only people who have received WakeMates thus far are our beta testers and investors. We will be getting units off the factory line this week. Please check the blog for details.
