There is is substantial user demand, though, and there are three different community-based or third-party calendaring applications that are all hamstrung by the lack of an alarm facility. It seems fairly clear at this point that: 1) The need for an alarm framework is not a passing fancy. 2) In order to be done sanely, it must be centralized... either as a single community project or as a Nokia supported part of the product. Applications cannot reasonably be expected to handle it without tripping over each other and killing battery life with polling.
