Given how hard I found it to find a decent alarm clock that didn't totally suck in terms of usability, I agree. I've also had 3 digital TV receivers that all were atrocious too.
Only word of warning would be to read Alan Cooper's inmates are running the asylum first, he has some spot on observations about how modern electronics are treated like computers (e.g. ovens that are hard to use, even though the old analog design, a dial with markings on, worked)
