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 (http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/articles.php?action=expand,8416) 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 (http://www.smartphone.net/smartphonethoughts/software_browse.asp?catid=78) 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 http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/images/smiles/duh.gif), 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!
