Pros: I bought one of these at Christmas 2008. It worked great at first.

Pros: Good sound for clock radio; looks nice; good features
Cons: Setup of Personal Portal -- where you input your Internet radio stations -- is a disaster. I have spent 3 days trying to get into my account. The online help is the worst I've ever encountered. No response to two e-mails either. I'm taking it back.
