 Half-Baked. Strengths: Can listen to mp3's, local FM radio, and a myriad of internet radio stations from anywhere in the world all on the same appliance. Can connect to a secured wireless network. Comes with a remote.
Weaknesses: Unreliable - can't count on alarm clock feature because the device frequently locks up. There is no easy way to switch back to the clock view. LCD too bright to leave on continuously.
Summary: This is a cool toy, but it has a lot of quirks. If you only want to use it to stream music, it's great. If you truly want to use it as an alarm clock radio, forget it. It's a PITA to turn the alarm on/off. You basically have to setup a new alarm every night. It also has an issue keeping the time. There is a certain sequence of key presses that throws the time off to some random value. It also frequently locks up in the middle the night, thus making its alarm worthless. What's more is that you can't easily switch back to the default view, i.e. the clock view, from the various music menus. Hopefully there will be a firmware upgrade soon that will make it work as it was designed. But as of now, it's half-baked.
