Not user friendly

I bought this product in March 2010 for my husband. After using this product for 8 months, you would think that we would get used to all of the quirks. I thought that the touch pad was cool and that it was something new we had to learn and become...

Good for listening to music, but terrible for everything else

The Coby iPod clock radio would make a better iPod speaker system without the clock and alarm. The time doesn't stay set properly. For example, I set my clock 5 minutes ahead of the time that's on the Weather Channel. Within a week or so, the time is...
