Alarm notifications?
« on: January 23, 2004, 12:32:58 am »
What PIM will power-on (wake) my Zaurus (SL-5600) in order to remind me of an appointment?  It does NOTHING if the Z is powered off or suspended.  Kinda useless.

Help!

On the C860 you can entar an event in the calendar app with an alarm... though even at max volume you can miss it if it\'s in your pocket, mainly due to the lame sound. The mail LED blinks though.

The 5600 has a proper speaker so you can actually turn the sound of the alarm up a lot. The default calendar alarms should wake the 5600 from suspend for alarms although I have noticed on occasion that Qtopia gets a bit messed up and forgets to wake up the Zaurus. A reboot fixes this in the short term, but I found this only seemed to happen when I had the IR applet installed, which isn\'t compatible with the 5600 currently anyway. When I uninstalled that, the problem went away.
