Y'know, I've seen this over and over and over on the Radio forum: "you
gotta have lighted buttons!"  "No backlit buttons!"  "How am I supposed
to see how to turn it off in the dark?!"  Ad nauseum.  But I think
back...I've been using digital electric alarm clocks since about 1980. 
NOT ONCE have I had one that had backlit buttons.  I've had clock
radios, cassette radio alarm clocks, CD radio alarm clocks, and plain
alarm clocks with no radio function at all.  NONE of them have had any
backlit buttons.  When I go to Frys' and look at their extensive
selection of alarm clocks, few to none of them have backlit buttons.  I
think it's time to call BS on the whole backlit button thing - if you
don't like the SBR, fine, but enough with the backlit button fantasy...
