Sega Toys' clock counts down to your final moment

This is a great/horrible clock depending on how you look at it. The Countdown Clock, made by Sega Toys, caters to the freelance writer/designer/whateverer and tells time in relation to an ominous deadline. Instead of setting a conventional alarm, you set a deadline (date and time), and the clock starts ticking toward the dreadful end. Kinda reminds me of Kevin Kelly's life countdown ticker that counts down to the day he predicts he will die. Except you can buy the Sega Toys version for $10 on Amazon Japan.

I find it kind of inspiring. Would be *super* cool if it could reveal a message when (and only when) the countdown finishes...
