Well, it doesn't work anyway.

My iPod has version 2.2 software, and even with a playlist set up, the only option for an alarm sound is "beep".

Hm, a device that primarily plays music, yet your only option for an alarm is "beep." Sad.

ipod alarm

Sorry this is much later: did you ever figure out the problem w/ your iPod alarm? Mine stopped working a few days ago (doesn't come on at the scheduled time as it used to). You think I should reset?

9/20, yikes

but yeah, i've noticed that the "beep" doesn't work in the newest update.

but what i've done is to make the alarm play from one of my playlists. so when my music suddenly changes, i know the alarm has hit.

its really useful if get to class early and sleep for a bit.
