Philips AJ3136 Groovy FM Alarm Clock Radio Review

Philips AJ3136 Groovy FM Alarm Clock RadioThe problems I have with this unit are numerous:
1) The display is backlit *only* when you press the face of the unit.Which means you can't tell what time it is at night unless you reach over and push the face.
2) The phyiscal orientation of the unit determines which alarm you hear, but the controls to turn off the alarm are only on one side.You will have to pick up the unit, turn it around, hunt down the little alarm on/off button, and put it back down on the side you want.No thanks.
3) The sleep function only sounds the alarm three times.Once you've snoozed the third time, the alarm won't sound again until the next morning.A great way to miss work :(
Yes, it looks cool; yes, the alarms are very nice and will wake even a sound sleeper.But if any of the negatives above sound annoying to you, you'll probably find this unusable.

Product Description:
Personalize your wake-up sound by turning the clock in different positions. Separate hour and minute display rotates as you turn the clock, and appears in correct orientation. Wake up to sonar, frog, radio station or alarm buzzer. Gentle Wake lets you customize your alarm volume to the level you need to wake up. When the wake-up time arrives, the alarm will switch on and the volume will gradually increase until the sound wakes you up. Sleep timer can be programmed to allow music to play for any period up to 60 minutes. Once the selected time period has expired, the clock switches to stand-by mode. Even when the battery is low, this clock will wake you up by changing to the battery low back-up alarm.
