I'm looking for an alarm clock/radio that sets the time automatically. It needs to have two alarms, maybe even an IPOD dock! Any suggestions?

No ipod dock, but I LOVE this alarm clock. My FIL and SIL have it too and we all love it. Has 2 alarms and the best part (IMHO) is that the buzzer starts off very quietly and gradually gets louder, rather than just jolting you out of sleep!

They have others, too, including one with an ipod dock (have never seen/used it though IRL):

Sony ICFC180

I bought a similar one at Costco. A friend bought a similar one at circuit city. It is my favorite alarm clock so far. I like that you can see the current time and both alarm times on the same screen. It has modes for alarm and music wake. Battery back up. Auto time set. Weekend mode. No ipod dock. Bright screen.

I have the ihome, I don't know about 2 alarms, but you can set the alarm to your ipod and play your favorite song. It even has a remote control.

I just bought dh an iHome at Costco for Father's Day. It has an iPod dock, and automatically sets the time, but it only has one alarm. So far he really likes it.

Thanks!!

I'm now thinking I want a CD alarm instead of the IPOD (I'll get portable speakers for that!) so it's between the Sony and the Brookstone, with a $40 price difference!!

I wonder if the Brookstone is worth it?

Does anyone own either of these with the CD function?
