thought of this one in college -- it could basically be a No-Doz or some kind of caffeine pill with a time-released coating -- could come in different doses -- the 2 hour pill, 4 hour pill, etc. So, after a long night of studying (or some other activity) when you know you have to be up in 2 hours,
you pop one of these pills and by the time your alarm goes off, caffeine is flowing through your veins, making it MUCH easier to get up...

Better yet, it would be caffeine wrapped in a sleeping pill. Take it and you're instantly asleep; at the appointed time you're instantly wide awake. |

Melatonin regulation, as in Egan's _Distress_, would probably work better than caffeine. Ever had the experience of being really really tired *and* wired at the same time? No fun. |

To make this really work it should be a small pill coating
machine that allows you to time-coat pills to your needs,
so you can calibrate the wake up time to your digestion
rate (varies based on your metabolism) |

It needs some kind of bladder relaxation medicine in there too, to keep you from having to pee during the night. |
