Title: poor design as a clock
Product review: I got this product to replace our alarm clock and double as a docking station for the 3G ipod touch I just bought my husband. The music-related features were fine (docking, charging, speaker quality, sleep mode, etc) but its a crappy clock design that doubles as a very bright night light.The numerals are gray on a gray background...difficult to read at night. And yet the background is lit very brightly, even on the dimmest of three settings. My 8yo who sleeps with a very bright night light loved that mom and dad's room was "all lit up." Me, not so much. I had to turn the light off completely to sleep and thus you can't see what time it is at all if you wake up in the night. If that's not enough...it also hums periodically and the buzzer tone sounds like a fire alarm, so I can't imagine anyone would want to wake up to that instead of music.It's going back. Bah.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
