Okay, so things that I absolutely love about my current Sony alarm clock (which I am weirdly passionate about), and which are must haves on any BEST EVER alarm clock: 1. It shows the alarm time when the alarm is enabled. So it's not just a little red light or whatever, it's "7:20 AM", so I don't get tricked by having re-set my alarm to a different time and forgetting to set it back. 2. After the alarm goes off, you can snooze it 10 minutes for tapping the snooze button; or you can snooze it longer by tapping the snooze button repeatedly, in 10-minute increments, and it shows how long you're sleeping: 10, 20, 30, &c, at least up to an hour. This is wonderful for when I'm still way too tired and decide that I'm going into work an hour late -- I don't have to fumble around with resetting my alarm, I just hit snooze repeatedly so the alarm goes off again in an hour without waking me up every 10 minutes along the way. 3. When in snooze mode, the alarm time blinks so that you know it's doing something special and that it's not just turned off/reset for tomorrow. 4. All of the above for two alarms, so my wife and I can wake up at different times, know exactly whose alarm clocks are set and for when, and sleep in without massively irritating the other person if needed. >From what I've seen, I don't think any Squeezebox has any of these features, but I'd love it if I'm wrong, because I don't need much in the way of excuses to add a fourth Squeezebox to the house. -- mkozlows ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mkozlows's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68252 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
