I have used AlarmX for a while now and find it very good with a nice display.

You can get it from Handango for $4.99 (great price for someone in the UK).


I originally purchased it for a conference in London, and found it extremely useful. Now I use it for a bedside alarm on my 610.

Hope this helps

I use SPB Time, and it works quite nicely. It's quite a bit more expensive than Alarm X (at $9.99), but it offers a timer, chronograph, calendar, and a bunch of skins.

I checked out SPB time, but wasn't convinced to use it in preference to StopTime, available from Jonathan Sach's web site http://home.comcast.net/~jonsachs/

I also like using his program Ephemeris, which gives sun and moon data for any location you can specify the latitude and longitude for.

Another vote for Spb Time. Even though I reviewed it it has stayed on my iPAQ and I use it every day. Plus its screen saver mode makes my iPAQ into a handy desk clock

I haven't tried it, but I've heard good things about WolfClock (http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=1&jid=3E3XEAA485693FF18XXDAAB2A5AB2B5A&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productType=2&platformId=2&productId=85715). One of the best things? It's free. :-D

I have been using several over the years... and none of them would fire consistantly until I used WolfClock. If for no other reason... having my alarm go off on time would be a why I could recommend it highly. And as was mentioned... its free...

I use pTravelAlarm (http://www.burroak.on.ca/pta.html) from Burr Oak.
