Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Does everything I need from my alarm clock ...
I have owned the RCR-22 for almost a year now. I wanted an alarm clock with the ability to choose which days the alarm would sound. I didn't want just weekdays or M, W, F. I am easily able to program it once and not have to worry about resetting it unless I need to change the time. It also displays the next alarm time and day so I can always check right before I go to bed if it is set correctly. I love not having to turn my alarm on and off like on older alarm clocks I've owned. Turning it off when I wake up just sets it up to go off for the next set day. It's great!! I haven't overslept yet!

I also like the sleep function that can be set for 60, 45, 30, or 15 minutes of radio to play while you fall asleep. Then it automatically shuts off. I just put it on talk radio and it puts me right to sleep.

I did not by this for sound quality, but I will admit it's mediocre at best when I've plugged my iPod in through the convenient Aux input.

It would be nice if it had the Human Waking System (HWS) for radio, too, not just buzzer mode, but not a big deal. It's all the same to me when I'm getting up at the crack of dawn!

I really like this product and don't see myself looking for a new alarm clock for a long time!



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - Atomic alarm clock radio
This atomic alarm clock radio is better than I thought it would be and then some. It is easy to set up and operate. I receved this just before we had to turn the clocks back (November 08) and I did not have to do a thing. It sounds great and it's the best alarm clock I've ever owned.



Buyer's feedback: 1 out of 5 stars - * No sync, no sale ...
My whole motivation behind this was to get a clock radio that didn't have to be updated twice each year. I have an atomic clock and it works wonderfully, and I thought, "what a great idea for a clock radio!" So I got the RC-22 with high expectations. Unfortunately it couldn't pick up the atomic clock radio signal. I tried everything I could think of... putting it near windows, resetting it, and trying diffent orientations for the antenna bar. Nothing worked. It really surprised me because it had no problems with FM radio reception -- even a weak station that my old (and still in service) clock radio chokes on. Sent it back for a refund.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Close to perfect if only....
I bought this alarm clock mainly to let me have a clock radio that I could use the sleep function on and have input to my ipod. My alarm clock is a different radio.

I love it. The reception is great. If a few things were changed around it would be my only one.

I love the multiple alarm settings
I love that you can set the alarm to any digital station or input and it will use that rather than what you had on last.
I like the light setting that lights up when you touch it.

I wish:
I wish the volume for the alarm could be set different than what the sleep settings were on last. My Timex I have now for my alarm does do that. It has a sleep volume and the master volume.

I wish the numbers were bigger or better contrast so that I could see it more easily with my glasses off.

I wish it could charge my ipod as well as use the 3.5 cable so that I didn't have to have 2 cables.

I wish that I could use the headset function for sleep sound but tell it to use the regular speakers for the alarm.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great clock & radio! Yes, it has a dimmable display! ...
I have had my Sangean RCR-22 for about 10 months now and I absolutely love it! I took a long while to choose a replacement for my Oregon Scientific Atomic Radio Alarm Clock (which I would rate mediocre) because I wanted to make sure I didn't repeat the same mistakes that I made buying that one (bad radio and BRIGHT display).

The Sangean has so many features that I like, for instance, two alarms, excellent digital radio reception, great speaker, 7 programmable preset radio station buttons, & more.

The feature that I want to address most, because I think it has caused many reviewers to unfairly criticize the clock, is the brightness of the display. This is a highly important feature of a radio alarm clock since most people will have it on their nightstand and don't want a bright light keeping them awake. I think that a lot of reviewers were unfamiliar with how the brightness modes work & thus were disappointed.

There are two brightness modes for the display: Maximum bright, and dimmable. Maximum bright is obviously the highest setting and is clearly visible and legible 20 feet away in daylight. In the dimmable mode you control the brightness using the knob on the bottom of the clock. The knob is kind of fiddly (small, recessed, and stiff) so it's not something that you want to mess with on a daily basis. Anyway, you use the knob (easiest with a small screwdriver) to set the display brightness to what you are comfortable with at night (I have mine set all the way off). On the front of the clock (on the bottom right) there is a button to switch between the two brightness modes. At night I just press the button once to put the display into the dimmable mode which essentially turns the display off. If I wake up in the middle of the night I just find the button, press it to see the time, & then press it again to dim the display. Finding the button is easy due to the side posts & I know it is on the bottom right. In the morning when the alarm goes off, the display switches to bright mode so the time is then visible during the day.

This is definitely the best atomic radio alarm clock that I have owned (it's my third one so far) and well worth the price.

We've covered in too much detail how it's some sort of "open season" on Vonage when it comes to VoIP patents. After dealing with ridiculous and expensive patent lawsuits from companies who failed to actually innovate in the same way Vonage did, the company was pressured by Wall Street to quickly settle the various patent lawsuits filed against the company. Of course, rather than settle matters, that simply opened the door for other companies to go searching through their patent portfolios to see if there was anything they could sue Vonage over. Indeed, following those settlements it didn't take long for AT&T to dig up a patent and sue -- which was quickly settled as well. Thought things were over? No such luck. Nortel just showed up last month to sue and it took all of about a week and a half for Vonage to settle that case as well.

The Nortel case is slightly different because Vonage actually already had a patent infringement lawsuit going against Nortel, but it wasn't really initiated by Vonage. Instead, it had been initiated by a patent holding firm that Vonage bought in 2006. The end result of the settlement doesn't involve money changing hands, but just a cross licensing agreement for the patents. So what's the big lesson that Vonage and others have learned from this? It's certainly got nothing to do with innovating. It's to hoard as many patents as possible so that you have your own nuclear stockpile for when someone else sues you. Want to know why the USPTO is overwhelmed? It's not because there aren't enough examiners (as some will claim) or that there aren't enough funds. It's because the way the system now works is that you are supposed to file patents on every tiny little advancement so you can use it to protect yourself against lawsuits from everyone else. That's not about innovation. It's about waste. In the meantime, since it's still open season at Vonage, who's going to be next? There are a ton of other patents in the VoIP space that can surely be used in a lawsuit, right?

Small and light enough for a shirt pocket, Samsung's Helix YX-M1 is a one-stop audio entertainment center with an XM radio, a digital music player, and room for 50 hours of tunes, but it comes up short on battery life.

This raw work-flow application isn't the Holy Grail many hoped it would be, but Apple Aperture 1.5 could make life easier for photographers who need to cull, retouch, and output large numbers of photographs quickly and efficiently.

The Garmin nüvi 360 GPS Navigator and Personal Travel Assistant is a GPS navigator, personal translator, multi-media entertainer and tour guide all wrapped into one. In addition to all the advanced features of the Garmin nüvi 350 -- including automatic routing, turn-by-turn voice directions, an MP3 player and audio book player, JPEG picture viewer, and much more -- this pocket-sized personal travel assistant comes with hands-free Bluetooth wireless technology, making it the hands-down go-anywhere travel companion.


The nüvi 360 comes with hands-free bluetooth wireles technology. See side view.


Browse your stored pictures with an easy-to-use JPEG viewer.


The device sports a handy MP3 player, letting you play songs stored on SD memory cards.
Make Hands-Free Calls
The nüvi 360 integrates wireless technology with a microphone and speaker that lets you make hands-free mobile phone calls using your compatible Bluetooth-enabled phone. Simply dial numbers with the nüvi's touch screen keypad to place a call, and to answer calls, just tap the screen and speak directly into its built-in microphone.

In addition, you can easily look-up and dial numbers from your personalized phone book or from your phone's call history log. Don't know the phone number for your destination? Simply find and dial it from nüvi's database of more than six million points of interest -- including hotels, restaurants, stores, and attractions.

Navigation and Entertainment with Ease
For starters, the nüvi 360 includes a high-sensitivity integrated GPS receiver that offers exceptional performance and reception. The unit's flip-up antenna includes an MCX-type connector for optional external GPS antenna connection. Preloaded software features maps of Europe or North America, and it includes automatic routing, 2D or 3D map perspective, turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names, and a fingertip touch screen interface -- making navigation as easy as it gets.

But navigation is just the beginning. Like the nüvi 350, the nüvi 360 also includes many entertainment and travel tools including an MP3 player, audio book player, JPEG picture viewer, travel alarm, and currency converters.

The nüvi 360 features a bright, 2.8 x 2.1-inch TFT display with white backlight for easy readability. At 3.87 x 2.91 x 0.87-inches (WxHxD) and just 5.1 ounces, the unit is small enough to be placed on the dashboard with the included suction mount, or into your pocket for easy transportability. The unit also features Garmin Lock -- an advanced anti-theft feature that disables the unit from performing any functions until you type in a specific four-digit PIN or take the unit to a predetermined location. A built-in lithium ion battery will give you up to eight hours of power, and an included 12/24 volt adapter cable will let you run the navigator off your vehicle's power. An AC battery charger is also included.

A built-in Travel Kit that includes sample MP3s and audio books will get you started with entertainment, and with the unit's SD memory card expansion slot you can add optional software, such as language and travel guides. A USB port is also included for loading and updating data.

There are but two kinds of people in the world: Those captivated by Baz Luhrmann's heady, postmodernist musical romp Moulin Rouge--and everybody else. Oddly, the film's initial soundtrack release may have been the project's most traditional element, marketing a slate of pop-star contributions that gave listeners a sometimes-skewed perspective on its true musical charms. This follow-up corrects much of that oversight, offering original film versions of "Sparkling Diamonds" (the lavish, Nicole Kidman-performed medley of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" and "Material Girl"), Jim Broadbent's and Richard Roxburgh's loopy take on "Like a Virgin," as well as the lively Offenbach "Can Can" parody "The Pitch (Spectacular Spectacular)." It also pays homage to the efforts of composer Craig Armstrong, whose quietly compelling underscore often binds the film's other far-flung musical influences together, be they stately orchestral readings of Elton John's "Your Song," a dramatic arrangement for Kidman and Ewan MacGregor's original film duet of "Come What May," or his dark, melodramatic take on Queen's "The Show Must Go On." The first Moulin Rouge soundtrack collection flaunted the film's bold, cross-genre ambitions; this one chronicles its nakedly emotional heart and soul. --Jerry McCulley

It would be easy to dismiss Kelly Osbourne's musical ambitions based on 1) Her royally obnoxious behavior on the family's MTV reality series, 2) Her overly manufactured debut album, Shut Up, and 3) That voice, which up until now, sounded like cats on a chalkboard. But spare a moment for the bratty singer's follow-up effort, a remarkably faithful new-wave throwback, which generously references everyone from Duran Duran to Missing Persons. Producer Linda Perry not only effectively revives the dramatic sounds and melodies of the era but offers songs that perfectly suit Osbourne's, er, constrained vocal range. The resulting disc is full of guilty pleasures like "Uh Oh" and "Redlight," tunes that should strike a chord with anyone that still gets a thrill out of happening upon basic cable reruns of "Sixteen Candles." --Aidin Vaziri
