The clock radio has extensive functions:. From your iPod, CD including MP3, Radio, Line in for external device, 2 alarm times. Also the sound is very good for this little device. And very nice small for the nightstand. Just awesome. However, I have deducted a star because this device also has a few points that you should know when purchasing: - If you want to fall asleep listening to CD, so nice and quiet, then you hear a little noise from the CD drive. (I thought about to return the product for an exchange; make perhaps not all devices) - In spite of a two-stage dimmer, the clock display is still very bright, this seems to be a problem in many radio alarm clocks.. I've made a red foil (exercise book cover) I cut out and glued in front of a suitable piece. Now I can even see the time, but it is not so bright. - There are lots of keys with double function (short press on = alarm, press and hold OFF = alarm; and so on depending on the selected playback device). Some subtleties can be the manual but not seen. I still have the manual are in bedside table to look at how the operation goes in detail. It's hard to remember everything. Despite the negative points: I would buy the unit again, because after a long search I have found no other device which so much can. I also find the value for money good.
