Happy Holidays: Heads-Up on Alarms and Battery Drain

[Zxz]

Have I just walked into an infomercial again? Should I be endorsing anything? Where's Brenda DyGraf and Jack LaLanne?

[melodyzok]

Not at all. Just responding to DT's remark on DB6. Since the built-in applications are still on your device and since DB6 works with the default databases it is possible the problem still occurs for people working with DB6. Those people might (falsely) assume this problem is NOT relevant to them, but it is.

FWIW: I NEVER had this problem for the reasons mentioned earlier (I worked around the issue if you want)

Thanks for the DB6 workaround information.

[raith]

Hmm. Point taken. But I still refuse to believe that DB6 can work the inner and the outer thighs both together so that your workout takes half the time.

I am giving up ...

Can we please keep this thread on topic for the reasons mentioned way back ? Please ?

[bluegas101]

Unreserved apologies.

For everyone that wants the "official" word on what exactly the bug is, who it affects, and what you need to do, here's a link (thanks to Maceyr, who posted it on her website, which is where I found it.)

Link from Palm Knowledge Base #26450

This problem DOES affect the Tungsten E2, despite Palm's not listing it on the link. Dick Tracy has indicated that the TX is similarly affected. Frankly, it annoys me that Palm has told us all about this problem for three years but hasn't actually fixed the bug.

Any why Dabney Coleman? Whatever did he do to deserve this?

Thanks, doogie. Until I re-read this I'd forgotten that I could be in trouble if I deleted Dabney Coleman's birthday from the calendar. (Which IS January 3rd, btw.)
