Default Looking for a stopwatch/alarm/countdown app

I'm looking for a decent stopwatch/alarm/countdown-type app for the Smartphone. I currently use Spb time for this purpose on my Pocket PC and greatly enjoy it. Can anyone recommend an app with similar ease of use for the Smartphone platform?

I already know about John Cody's Alerts, Chronos, and a few others. I just need to know which one works best!

Personally, I like Alerts. I've found it really easy to use, and I like the screen layouts. You can check out my review of it over here for more info.

There are a number of different clock/alarm applications on the market. I think the best one for you varies based on your needs. Here's a link to the "clock" category on Smartphone.net. I would give a bunch a try, most of them should have a trial version.

I bought CityTime Alarms due to the extremely simple layout (I had actually bought it a few days before I started this thread but didn't realize it had stopwatch functions until later ), and am trialling Alerts! mostly because of the discount the developer offers to owners of competing software.

Still, I really wish that Spb would port Spb Time to Smartphones. I love that app on the Pocket PC!
