This is why I've never used a SB player for alarm purposes (I honestly don't even know how to set an alarm on one). I don't even choose to have them display the clock. I have more friggin clocks on more unrelated appliances than I care to count. Way too many interrelated factors to perform a simple task that can be accomplished flawlessly with a standalone $5 alarm clock with a simple 9v battery back up. Over engineered products demanded by consumers who want every device to perform every possible task conceivable, then complain of that products complexity. I'm a big fan of SB players and recommend them to anyone that will listen, but as soon as "can I use it as an alarm clock" comes up I simply answer "NO! Buy the SB player for music, keep your current alarm clock!" :) -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70526 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
