Title: Great sound, No battery B/up
Product review: This Phillips IPod clock radio has great sound. It compensates for the fact that MP-3 format clips low frequency sound. I just can't understand that they designed a clock radio without a back-up battery. Also the lighted display is too bright, even at 'dim' for a bedroom. I had to turn it away from the bed, but then can't see the display. The alarm (or Radio) comes on quiet, but quickly gets too loud. An anoyance if you just want to listen for 15 more minutes. The 'manual' is just a sheet of paper and lacks detail. I did return it for the above reasons, primarily the lack of back up battery. Poor design should not be rewarded.I replaced it with the Timex Mod. T617S that does have back up battery and C D player. It don't have a iPod jack, but does have a MP-3 input and pillow speaker output. I can still connect my iPod shuffle. It works great and does have a display dim enough to be next to my bed.Harold
