The lack of alarm reliability after 6 months is of course the main issue
of the Radio. Yet there are several more issues like the lack of
customization and messed up layout of all default applets (wakeup,
alarm, screensaver). Heck, not even switching the Radio off works
correctly.

What is most frustrating is the fact that the MYSB connectivity is
currently worse than it ever was before. It kinda worked like 95% with
7.4.2 and the server fixes introduced in February, but currently this
is really a complete disaster. While with 7.4.1 there were at least
tricks to fix the MYSB connection without rebooting after either the
server or the bug ridden Radio software screwed up again, now even
rebooting doesn't help most of the times. In the last day, I had to
power down the Radio completely (switch off, pull power plug from
outlet, wait, plug it in, switch on) at least every second day to fix
the MYSB connection. Also not a single alarm in the last week worked
completely correctly. Either the backup alarm started right from the
beginning or it kicked in after some time. Of course in heart-attack
volume. 

Yes, the alarm reliability sucked from the beginning, but it was never
as bad as it is now. They should sell this thing as Tamagotchi for
technophile masochists. It is currently a bad joke to promote it as
bedside radio.
