Hi everybody,
first of all thanks to TOM for his B&B 4.1!!!!:D

As you can see i'm using that wonderful ROM and i like it so much!!!

There is something that i'd like to customize, but it dosen't depend on the TOM's ROM, but it is related with WM in general.
Any time that an appointment or a task is Notifing me there is the opportunity, through the soft key on the left, to postpone it throug a specific delay. Is there any possibility to customize that delay instead of the percomiled 1 minute, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, etc?

Thank for your answers!!

Cheers :)

Why would you want 2 do that, would you want to snooze it for more then a day? (task rescedule?).

I dont know if its possible, probably you will need a 3rd party app for this. Tries looking into pocketinformant or another agenda/task app?

It's a fair question - I've often wished I could snooze a task by a specific amount of time - 40 minutes, 50 minutes, and 1 hour 20 minutes, etc.

As a PocketInformant user, I'm fairly sure it simply interfaces with WM6 standard alerting, bringing up the normal snooze intervals. Certainly if it can be done, I haven't found out how!

Of course its a fair question, i was just curious...

But do you want to alter the options or make it so that you can choose to put in the specific snooze time?

i'd like just change the "specific time", even better if it's possible to chose how much to postpone .... i think 5, 10 and 15 minutes are quite similar, i need something like:

- 15 minutes
- 3 hours
- 8 hours
- 12 hours
- 1 day

thanks guys!!!

For my taste it would be nice to be able to do both, I guess, with a little bit of 'stickiness' so that the last couple of custom snooze times appeared alongside any 'standard' snooze intervals I have configured.

It's handy for those times when you know you are going to be out of a meeting in 25 minutes, or your SatNav is telling you 1 hour and 10 minutes to your destination...not a killer app, but handy!

Exactly!! How could you do that?

Ahhhh, that's the million dollar question! All I can say is that I don't believe PocketInformant will do the job.
