There’s also no snooze button."<br>---Ok...  I wanted this clock bad but what kind of clock turns off the time after a few minutes???  How dumb could the designers be making a clock that turns off its own display?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Switched On: Philips PSS110, The Little Boombox That Can't]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/switched-on-philips-pss110-the-little-boombox-that-cant/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/switched-on-philips-pss110-the-little-boombox-that-cant/</guid><description><![CDATA[yeah, thats kinda, UH: STUPID!!<br><br>but it is firmware upgradable :P..<br>maybe its more like those tiny creative speakers and not a alarm clock]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[luka]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Switched On: Philips PSS110, The Little Boombox That Can't]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/switched-on-philips-pss110-the-little-boombox-that-cant/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/switched-on-philips-pss110-the-little-boombox-that-cant/</guid><description><![CDATA[It looks cool even if its crap.

The device sounds very good for its size. The USB 1.1 is so slow it's painful. The menu system is horribly slow. You can't keep settings you make because they revert back all the time (like sleep timer,etc)<br>They should have used no memory and allowed SD cards instead. The company that gets the MP3 clock-radio done right will make a killing. Philips gets kudos for trying but boy, what a lame attempt.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dr. When]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Switched On: Philips PSS110, The Little Boombox That Can't]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/switched-on-philips-pss110-the-little-boombox-that-cant/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/04/switched-on-philips-pss110-the-little-boombox-that-cant/</guid><description><![CDATA[I too wanted this clock to work oh so much.  I currently have a nickelodeon alarm clock (works beautifully- and has for years- super loud too)  but I think it is about time for me to get an mp3 alarm clock.  I CAN choose to wake up to the radio with my current clock, but I do not want to wake up to half mexican jibberish/ one quarter static and one quarter music.  <br><br>The company that makes an easy to use, dependale, mp3 alarm clock will make tons of money.  Just think of all the sounds you could wake up to....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[E. Marrs]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 12:13AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
