subjectMatchstick Message #51: Enable Alarm Notes



Dear RIM,


You know when you're packing at night for an early flight, and there are all those little things you need to remember to do before you run out of the door half-asleep? Remember charger, turn off sprinklers, move car into driveway so it looks like somebody is home, etc.?


You could write a post-it, but who can read that early in the morning? And anyway, its the 202nd decade--let's move on from those silly little yellow things.


What we really need is just a simple little box for notes in our alarm. We see them when the alarm goes off. This is the advantage of a phone over the ones with the actual hands and gears. Its easy. Its convenient. It could be BlackBerry. (You could say "just go to tasks, or your calendar", but I don't use those. I want it in my alarm, because I use that.)



Sincerely,




Tara Raffi
