Thanks for taking the time to write to us. We love hearing suggestions and feedback from our customers. This is certainly an interesting idea that we will pass along to our developers for review. We will not be able to provide an alarm function due to the restraints of the iPhone SDK but it is an excellent idea.
We hope you continue to send us your suggestions and feedback. We really appreciate it. If there is anything else we can do just let us know.
