Agree with all of this. On top of it, passed the it not really increasing the quality of my waking up..Just increasing the chances I will. Even if it solved a problem that I really needed to solve, which it really doesn't. The price is wayyy too high, just in a whole other league. I could never justify over $100 on just an alarm clock. It doesn't have awesome speakers, or an ipod dock etc. I could buy a dozen alarm clocks for this price, and literally just put them everywhere.
