Alarm clock translation error, German
When going on, the alarm shows "Verwerfen" (English: Dismiss) for turning off (as opposed to snoozing). While I am not sure whether "Dismiss" is a good English term for this (I would rather expect "Off" or "Alarm off"), in German it is rather misleading. It should read "Aus" or "Alarm aus".

While I am not sure whether "Dismiss" is a good English term for this (I would rather expect "Off" or "Alarm off"), in German it is rather misleading. It should read "Aus" or (better:) "Wecker aus".
Edit: Due to a comment and checking the N900: Alternative to "Aus"/"Wecker aus", the wording "Stopp" may be used, to cater for people expecting a "total switch off" of all alarm functions when they select "Wecker aus".
