I was thinking the same thing. I too went through the phase off thinking the one misstep on my (new) 8330 was a simplistic Alarm app. [My old VZ5300 had a very useful 3-alarm app.] Until I realized I could use Tasks with audio reminders (on the 8330 these start with the day, but go down to the minute...good enuf!) to do the same thing...literally...I have 3 Tasks setup as 'placeholders', called Alarm 1-3 waiting to be timer-programmed. The trick is to ALSO go into the 8330 Profiles and modify (if necessary, I needed to) how Task timers are utilized within that profile. Thankfully, that's a set-once-and-forget operation.
Other than that, these task-alarms might be slightly more tedious to set up, but it does the job for me well enough that I'll get used to it.
hth someone else?
