Treo alarm review.

Why am I reviewing an app on my phone, Well for two reasons:
1. It is a bloody good app and has proven very useful to me.
and
2. It is a totally mercenary act to balg a free full copy.

So that said here goes.

Treo alarm is an incredibly useful app that allows you to set an alarm to switch your treo 600's wireless mode on or off, set general alarms and get weather reports (Screenshot).

Treo alarm's most useful function is its ability to switch on and off the wireless function on your phone. Due to the treo not having an off switch as such you can sometimes forget to turn your phone off at night or even on again in the morning, well treo alarm solves this very nicely by doing it for you, all you have to do is set the alarm for the time to switch off, choose disable from the wireless menu and hit ok. You can also get it to switch back on again by setting a second one.

Treo alarm also lets you set the day/days and alarm type. Combine this with the ability to use it as an alarm clock without all the mucking about in calendar and the ability to update weather reports from the net this is a very lovely little app.

I would highly recommend this to anyone with a treo 600 or 650 phone.
