Personally I don't think there's a good enough visual relationship between the action buttons and the selected appointment, and it's not immediately obvious how I would arbitrarily dismiss some reminders and snooze some others-- presumably I'd have to snooze the ones I want to snooze first, and then Close the dialog to dismiss the rest, which I suspect isn't how most users' minds work :) FWIW I think iCal on the Mac does a much better job here, with icons for Close, Snooze and Edit beside each appointment[1]. The snooze icon pops up a menu offering the choice of 1min/5min/1hr/2hr/1dy.
