I thought that the ability to put the phone on silent and then set an alarm which would wake you up by playing LOUD was a great feature of the t68. Shame it's not in the p800. I't good to know who's been trying to phone you in the night and how many times they tried!!!

As an interim workaround, you could select a ringing tone that begins quite quietly and set your GSM divert on no answer down to 5 seconds.

In this way you get your log of all your night-time callers but nobody wakes you, until your alarm goes off. Don't forget to set the divert back to something longer (I use 15 secs) in the daytime.

I don't have my P800 yet so I haven't tried this.

alarm should definitely cause the phone to vibrate!

There's a difference between when the phone is turned off in the charger and turned off completely.

Is it possible that the alarm only works with the phone off and plugged in the charger?!
