The alternative I employed was to write replacement functions for the Palm alert functions and to pray that people wouldn't bring up the keyboard and leave it there. If your only problem is with alert boxes then the replacement code isn't too hard to write.
As Peter's reply indicated, the other answer to this is to implement low-level mechanisms at OS level to trap events below the interface. Doing this in a robust manner on a variety of PalmOS versions is a task I'm really not looking forward to.
