I just purchased a Squeezebox Radio.  I find it amazing, with one
problem.

I m hoping to use it as my bedside alarm clock & Internet radio.

I just spent 2 hours to resolve a problem where my alarm would ring one
hour earlier than it was set for.  Thanks to this forum, I determined
that the PC where I has installed the Squeezebox server had the wrong
timezone.

My question is - Why does the alarm function require a server??!!  I
just want the alarm function to work like a $5 wind-up alarm clock -
ring when at the time the alarm is set for!  How hard is that?  

I'm worried about oversleeping due to a server problem or a network
problem. I'm not sure if I should be, but after the Timezone problem, I
am.

My old fashioned clock radio has an alarm that works, and a 9V battery
backup.  True - the radio sucks, but the alarm is damn reliable!

Am I missing something?
