I very rarely use the alarm on my bn because when keysoft V. 4 came in to my machine a bug was introduced which, no matter how many times I cansel the alarm, it still rings. No amount of resets seems to rectify this so I have to go into the alarm options menu and clear it out from there, and this "bug" still persists so it really isn't worth using it at this time. Since I am mainly at home, I can set other timing devices if I feel I need a prompt, but usually a quick check in the planner is enough to jog my memmory. I can see the value of the alarm and actually used it to wake me up when in California but it was a nuisance to get stopped.
