Don't know if you are more interested in building such a clock, or just having one. If the latter, one possible option is the Innova OnTime series, which are NTP time displays. One place to buy them is here:
http://www.networkcablesonline.com/Network-Clocks/c97/index.html These commercial clocks get their time from SNTP and run on Power-over-Ethernet. No alarm function, though, and the configuration is via telnet rather than USB. They also might be bigger than you want, they're more for time displays in offices and buildings, but I have one of the dial clocks in my home driven by my Soekris-based GPS NTP server. -- eric On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 1:44 AM, J.
