If you want a working alarm, better buy something else.

The alarm is the most broken functionality on the Radio and it totally
depends on the MYSB servers (or a local server running 24/7). 
If the MYSB server is down (which happens every now and then) or
doesn't work correctly (which usually takes Logitech several months to
figure out), the alarm is not working at all or at least heavily
crippled.

Add a bunch of bugs in the Radio's alarm implementation, a really bad
interface design for the alarm (e.g. nearly unreadable time when the
alarm is active etc.) and a non-existent SW development for bugfixes
and improvement and you get something that might be useful as mono
streaming device, but definitely not as alarm clock.

And don't expect the situation to improve. The SW is as buggy and the
alarm functionality as broken as it was in October 2009 when I bought
the Radio. It's just that half a year ago, they broke the alarm
completely and only after several months, they managed to get it at
least back to the "works correctly in 3 of 5 cases" scenario.
