john,

I have a new version that almost has the different sound settings complete - you can select from three built-in sounds but still cannot select a custom sound (you will eventually be able to). I just tried to implement a bare-bones solution like world clock for this go around.

By all means, if anyone has suggestions for the alarm system I will listen. Everything John mentioned about snooze, launching media player or radio should be doable (I will have to look into snooze). Let me know what other people want. More recursion options? Anything I haven't thought of.

As far as the alarm defeating the screen lock, I believe this is the intended behaviour of the built-in alarms, ie. you can interact with the alarm disable/snooze no matter what state the device is in. I haven't tested the alarm-on-boot-up, but the device should turn on (perhaps into a dummy mode) if an alarm is scheduled to go off but the device is powered down.
