Editorial Reviews:
Everything youll need to know to start your day off right is at your fingertips. With the weather forecast in graphical icons, youll never wonder if you need an umbrella again. This atomic clock also monitors indoor and outdoor temperature from up to 5 remote locations. You can put a sensor outside in your garden, in your wine cellar and your babys room and read all that information from the comfort of your bedroom.

Customer Rating: Summary: The Clock has some issues Comment: In general, I like this product. The temperature is fairly accurate, and the large text display is pretty nice. However I have some issues with the product.
First, the Atomic Clock syncronization does not work. The Atomic Clock is supposed to syncronize via the external remote piece (which obtains outside weather data as well. No matter where I placed this in my house, it was unable to read atomic clock data. I have two atomic clocks in my house, and neither of these have this problem. I needed to set the clock manually instead of using this feature.
Second, the remote is fairly useless - it really is only used to turn off the alarm - which I don't use. It would be nice if the remote had the capability to turn on the backlight, so I can see the clock in the dark. With a large display like this, I would expect this.
Other than this, the clock and weather functionality work well.
