Hi Ryan:

We discussed this, but I thought I'd put it in writing, just in case there's an upgrade in the works. I love Baby Boom despite disconnects, etc. some of which may be the network's fault.

However, I find the alarm function to be irritatingly unfriendly, compared to the simple, obvious functionality that every alarm clock takes as standard. Here are some requests, if they could be included sometime:
When it's off, pushing the alarm button should show the time of the next alarm briefly.
Holding the alarm button should enter the alarm management mode, without having to first turn the power on.
In alarm mode, you can't see the times set for your alarms unless they're active. That means you have to remember what's what, or dig deeper into the menu to find what time each is set for. Why not show the times for all, maybe in green if they're on, and red if they're off, so you get all you need at a glance? It's just irritating right now.

Hope this helps. I'm trying to save button pushes and having to do multiple tasks when people are tired and just want to see what they've set at a glance.

Thanks.
