Any users with small children care to share your experiences? Is it even worth
the bother, given that huge uncontrollable variable in your sleep habits?

I was kind of curious about this, too. If I wake up in the middle of the night
to deal with a sick toddler, will WakeMate know I'm fully awake based on the
fact that I'm walking around? I suppose it would be much like waking up to go
to the bathroom, for those without young kids.

Obviously the alarm's only going to help if I set it for a window I know is
before the kids wake up. Otherwise it's their voices that'll wake me. On work
days, that would suit my usual routine. On the weekend, I'm not sure it would
be worth it to forego a potential extra hour of sleep by setting the WakeMate
alarm.

But it's still tempting, just to chart my sleep during the week and be able to
measure the effects of caffeine, exercise, etc. I'll probably wait until there
are reviews and testimonials from people who have used it for a few months.

I was tempted a couple years ago by a much more expensive product whose name I
can't recall. I think it was $300-400. In contrast, it's pretty easy to take a
chance on $60. Cool product, guys. I hope you're wildly successful.

Have you compared some of your analytics/benchmarks with competing products?

I am not sure I'm interested in an optimal waking time because I tend to wake
up without an alarm at pretty much the right time.

however, I'd love to view some analytics on my sleep cycles and such. It'd be
nice to see a comparison of say Wakemate vs. Fitbit w.r.t the accuracy /
tracking / battery life / etc.
