Alarm for untimed events:
You can set a silent alarm for an untimed event. In this
case, the alarm triggers at the specified period of minutes, hours, or days before
midnight (beginning) of the day of the untimed event. When the alarm triggers, the
reminder list displays the alarm message until you clear it. See
“Receiving alerts”
in Chapter 4 for details.
For example, you might set an alarm for an untimed event that occurs on
February 4. If the alarm is set for five minutes, the reminder message appears at
11:55 PM on the night of February 3. The reminder remains in the reminder list
until you turn on your handheld and dismiss it.
