Got this a couple weeks ago FAR.

The time wasn't set automatically with the SmartSet auto time feature, so set it manually.

Note, don't see it mentioned, but mine does have a AUX input. It's not gona be amazing audio quality, but $0 for a clock/speaker is a great deal for the kids/guest room.

I also got one on April 23. Can I do it again, and get the rebate again?

There is a thread for FAR items. This has been posted there before. I have seen this same alarm clock FAR now for about 3 weeks, maybe longer. They must be sitting on a monster stockpile of these...

Had the same question. I think as long as the rebate offer number is different it should work. Anyone?

Had a look arnd and ppl on SD said u can redo if new rebate numbers, but newegg chat (twice) said u can't. Anyone?

The time wasn't set automatically with the SmartSet auto time feature, so set it manually.

Found out about this "Amazing SmartSet Technology" that this clock has. All it is, is that at the factory they set the clock, and it has a small battery (cr2032)inside which keeps that info stored till plugged in. These are refurbs where the battery was removed, so clock must be set manually.

So that's deceptive on their part the way its advertised. No?

Did you read the reviews on newegg?  People have nothing nice to say about it even thought it was free.  I have had mine for 3 weeks now and yes it is big and bright but other than that I am very happy with it.  A mazal I had the little battery in the house :)

I can also put the battery in and Smartset auto time will work again?

Sure.  The only thing to keep in mind is that it is not atomic.  If it loses time on its own or if you set it wrong that is what it will remember.
