Agreed, that should definitely be included

Great idea erland. Getting a simple function back to... simple.
Couple of suggestions:
- small selection of basic Alarm sounds to choose from (bells, chimes,
siren, voice recording of my mother-in-law)
- pressing Play dismisses the Alarm, plays the last item played
- pressing a Preset
To your feature list I'd add the ability to set a different alarm for
each day of the week (I disagree with bluegaspode on that, obviously).
I don't think you need the ability to set N arbitrary alarms, but I do
think it would be nice to try to accommodate users who don't wake up

I'm not sure I want to add things like this, it will make it too

What is the lead-time on
Don't forget that there would still be prospective problems even with a
totally localized alarm application. Without the proper
synchronization between local (Radio based) apps and server requests
the playout subsystem may well end up fought over (which is what
sometimes happens today with the

probably not within a reasonable time/cost with the limited number of

But if the user is instructed to simply don't configure any alarms on
the server(s).
If you do a completely independent simple alarm applet
The only conflict I see is that it tries to fire to many alarms your
proposed applet and the built in alarm (if configured).
