This was a Christmas present that has been disappointing. We have yet to locate a spot in or around our home where we get a signal strong enough to have consistent updated weather conditions.

OK, 'iPod of weather' is over-doing it, but I love this gadget and recommend it whole-heartedly. I own one, and my wife and I find it so useful we've gifted to family. Like the iPod, it makes one facet of life better in a simple, direct, elegant way: I glance at it 2-3 times daily, and know in a glance what to expect weather-wise, without wires, monthly fees or the need to turn on TV/PC.
How accurate is it? I would say reasonably and usefully accurate. Perfect if you want to know what ... Read More
