I hate my alarm clock. I got it so long ago I don't even recall who makes it.
Having had 3 power outages in less than 3 hours AND needing the alarm for work, I've decided it's time for a new one.
Any suggestions? something with battery backup I guess :o
If it holds an iPod and I can use it, great...if not, that's fine.
What do YOU have??
Thanks in advance.

We have an iHome clock radio, with four radio pre-sets and 2 alarms. The first alarm will play your iPod if it's docked. If not, it beeps. The second alarm plays the radio. We like it- the clock is easy to read and the sound is great. It even comes with a remote control.

I've got the JBL OnTime -- in black, to match my iPod, but it also comes in white. The radio reception is great, even out here in the boonies ... You can even sync your iPod while it's charging if your alarm clock is close enough to a computer. (Mine's not.) The display isn't very big, and I find that it's hard to see, but otherwise, very few complaints.

I have the same one MusicMom posted. Although I admit I've never used the alarm on it.....I mainly bought it for the iPod feature (playing/charging).

Thanks.
I'll check to see if it has battery back up first :D
Good to hear some nice products out there.
Thank you!
