Personally I'd love an alarm clock which has the date + weather and I can use my own music as an alarm, plus some simple web browsing.

Unfortunately I don't the Dash really does anyone of the above well. :\ At least this update allows you to access your own music collection. :\]]>May 27th 2010 4:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/May 27th 2010 4:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/

Set iGoogle to homepage for similar homescreen to the Sony.

Its the FLIQLO screensaver (activate after 2 mins): http://www.9031.com/downloads/screensavers.html

and installed ALARM CLOCK 1.0: http://download.cnet.com/Alarm-Clock/3000-2350_4-10064069.html?tag=mncol
(spacebar sets the configurable snooze, and can set a different MP3 to wake up to for each day of the week)

Windows7 automatically sets screen to maximum dimness when idle under power options, to avoid lighting up the room. =)]]>May 27th 2010 4:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/

But paying attention to @goalcams post. Does it work fine in the UK?]]>May 27th 2010 4:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/May 27th 2010 5:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/]]>May 27th 2010 5:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/May 27th 2010 5:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/sony-dash-software-update-adds-usb-playback-by-months-end/So at least make it work right.
But it looks like the update fixes the issues I had with the alarm.
