Default So , what about the "repeat" checkbox under the "reminders" event in "sound and notifications&q

seem to work here with no additional software ?
It repeats a bit slow (long silence between repeats) but maybe with a longer wav file , and it also stops repeating if PPC powers down , but still thats 3 minutes of alarm sound ?

They always told me PPC2002 and 2003 had NO repeating alarms ?????

Is there some reason i should not use it ?

(i have an ipaq 2215)

"They" were wrong. PPC2002 did not have repeating alarms, WM2003 does. For those used to other systems, such as SuperAlert, it is a bit slow in frequency and seems more of an after thought. And no, it is not limited to three minutes, it is limited to whatever the power saving setting that you selected is

No, there is no reason not to use it, except that alarms in WM2003 seem to be unstable for some people. YMMV.
