Actually, I do listen to music or the news while exercising. <grin> I'm a
bit gun shy about the alarm, because I've heard from lots of people who
said they couldn't get the alarm to turn off. <grin> I just thought I'd
mention the stopwatch issue so PDI could be aware of it, and so other users
who might need it for a radio show or something could be aware of the going
to sleep and stopping issue that seems to occasionally crop up. I find it
annoying when it happens, but I can live with it, though I do hope PDI can
fix it for later upgrades.

Hi, Peggy and List!
Why not set an alarm for the amount of time you want to exercise for?
Then, you could read a book, or listen to music while you go at it!
