Dear RIM,


When you search for alarms on BlackBerry App World, there are a plethora of multiple-setting alarm applications.

When there are so many reproductions of such a basic application, it means that there is clearly something wrong with the BlackBerry version. What could it be? I know! The fact that you can only set ONE alarm at a time!!!!!!!


Come on. This phone can message across the world in an instant, but it can't have at least an alarm setting for each day of the week? My Samsung flip-phone had this 7 years ago. Yes, the BlackBerry target user is on the older and less-technology-savvy side, but that is no excuse. Once they learn the joys of a technology, like if they got an Android for instance, then they would never be able to look back.





Yes, its pretty. But what's that saying? Something about the flower but the flower pot is empty?











<----- Single alarm setting






Quite the opposite. Ugly, but with supreme functionality.

Thank you, QuickAlarm, for accomplishing what a technology giant thinks unnecessary, but is in fact, not.












So, for my sake, for yours, and for those of the multitudes of business men who have too much on their mind to change their alarm every day and are being silently cheated by those people that sell alarm apps for FIVE dollars, please just make a multiple-alarmed alarm.



Sincerely,



Tara Raffi
