Dianne,
Are there guarantees that the wake lock is held long enough for the
PendingIntent tied to the alarm to actually be delivered?
Such as starting a service, triggering a broadcast receiver?

Note that currently the alarm manager WILL NOT hold a wake lock for
sufficient time when starting a service, so if you are using a wake up
alarm you must go through a receive and do a fun dance with wake locks.
