This evening I had a little problem with the alarm of my phone. I have set an alarm at 18:30 which recurs every day. Until now i have never had a problem with, i can always 'Stop' it or 'Snooze' it.
However this evening at around 18:00 I walked into a hospital, so I put my N900 into 'offline mode'. 30 minutes later, when i was still in the hospital and my phone still in offline mode, the alarm went off. But now i could not press any of the Stop or Snooze buttons (which is really not fun when you are in a hospital!). I tried pushing both of the buttons a lot of times, and also tried to discard the dialog by tapping outside the dialog, and tried pushing the powerbutton to get the menu but nothing worked. The only thing i could do was lock and unlock the screen with the slider-button and power/swipe :/ In the end i also tried to turn of the phone by holding the powerkey but it didn't work either. After a while, obviously the (at that place) annoying alarm-signal stopped, only to return me in the exact same situation 5 minutes later. I then decided to use the sledgehammer and pull out the battery. Just when i had taken off the back-cover and was going to remove the battery, the phone asked me if i wanted to turn off the offline mode. Then finally i could turn off the alarm (and phone, because i was a bit tired of it for the first time since i own it).

Do you guys think this is a bug, or was i really doing something wrong (my guess is that it's a bug)
