Well, well. I missed these yesterday. Let me help you:

1) You should go buy a $5 generic brand alarm clock. It has battery
backup and FM radio. It will work even when the power is out. Or try and
find a mechanical clock. 

2) The purpose of an alarm is to wake-up people. Oversleeping means
failure.

All in all, when the situation is terribly degraded for the Boom, I
want to see it ooze the last milliwatt it has trying to wake me. At that
moment, it must be its one purpose. And I don't care if the sound is
ugly, if the display goes blank, if it needs complete reboot afterwards,
...
Same goes for the Radio of course. I hope the Radio can use its big
brains and battery to power its amp and boost the volume of the alarm,
alternate sounds/frequencies (wake up the dog??), flash its screen, try
what's available on line in...
Whatever it takes.
