British technology company in Cambridge, England has invented an intelligent paper memo post-it note. It's key feature is a built-in alarm clock that can be programmed to flash or beep.It's called the Ixp-Note and it's just 1mm thick. A secret process uses thermo-chromic ink to display a digital clock readout on paper. It was invented by Lyndsay Williams, in the Girton Labs, her idea is that people can place them at strategic places around the house with reminders such as 'take the bread out of the oven', or 'time for my vitamin pill. Look out for the post-it notes in 2009, they should be about $20 for a pack of ten.
