I wish I had known about this clock a few months ago.
I might still get one like it. Or maybe not.
There are two things I don't like about such clocks:
1) If it cannot receive the signal, the clock is useless.
2) The whole concept is a cop-out. The manufacturers are in effect saying that they can't be bothered to make accurate timekeepers.
