    • Good: Fits most ipods, Two alarms for different days, Good remote, Very slim (hense the name...)
    • Bad: Extremely bright backlight, A bit of fuzzy sound when in ipod mode if the volume is low.

    I think that the iSlim is good if you dont want music too loud in a room or you just want a normal clock radio. Something that many people have said is that the alarm gets too loud, well I believe it is clever because alarms ARE to wake you up.

    Excellent Value for Money. Agree with most comments made above and probably not very good as an alarm clock for most - I LOVE IT. The alarm is escalating and gets quite loud - which I LOVE. The lights don't bother me. The snooze button does bother me - but then I think of the prize tag and value for money it delivers !!!!!!
    If the points above bother you - don't buy this. If they don't and you want a cool looking dock with good features at a reasonable price - this is it.

    • Good: looks good and has a decent speaker for a clock radio
    • Bad: the alarm volume

    rather impressed with the item however the fact that the alarm volume is uncontrolable, is extremely annoying since this was the major reason for purchasing this product.

    • Good: - Easy to use
      - Looks good
      - Ipod sits well and charges
      - Nice remote
    • Bad: - No Head Phone Jack!
      - No AM band
      - Speaker quality poor

    Got this as a gift, as I took it out of the box it did look promising but then I turned it on and had a good look at it.

    • Good: Great sound for quiet listening and looks cool. Strong remote.
    • Bad: No dimmer for the screen, it lights up the whole room and needs to be covered if you want to sleep. Alarm volume can't be adjusted and is very loud. Short, non adjustable snooze function (5mins). Snooze button is hard to tell from other buttons on top of unit. No snooze button on remote. No battery back up.

    I am really dissapointed with this item. I bought it after my AV Labs iPod alarm broke and I thought TDK would have all the features you need but it doesn't. Don't buy this, it is frustrating. As iPod speakers I like it, as an alarm, I wake up every day dissapointed with this product. Soon I will knock a glass of water over it then tell my wife it's broken......Unless TDK read this and offer me a refund....

    • Good: Takes most (all?) iPods
      Good sound
      Simple to use
      Remote control
    • Bad: Bright display

    This is exactly what I was looking for. Slim, reasonable sound (it's a clock radio not a sound system) and it takes all iPod versions hat I know of.
