Default Alarm Clock, simple with MP3?

Hi All,
Had my Desire for a couple of days now and I am well pleased. Except,

I would like to find a simple Alarm Clock app that supports
MP3 as sound
Vibrate
Snooze
And a way to turn it off


Basically, you all remember the old radio Alarm clocks everyone had, You set your time, you set your radiostation and you fell asleep.
It had a MASSIVE snooze button on top and an off button on the side.
That's what I want.

I've tried looking through market but 8 of 10 have a review saying "Does not ring at all" and well. If I see that in a review it's out straight away.

Thank yuo kindly for any help given.

the built in alarm allows snooze and vibrate as well as turning it off - not worked out how to get it to link into mp3 yet like you could on the G1

GOT IT!
If I set any of my MP3s as a ringtone it then comes up in the list of choosable music in the standard alarm as well....
But you need to have actually SET IT as you ringtone once first...

How about make a folder on the SD root called "alarms" and put mp3's in that? This is my first Android phone and even i figured that one out lol.

Just make folders like these.

Ringtones:
/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones

SMS Alerts:
/sdcard/media/audio/notifications

Alarm Alerts:
/sdcard/media/audio/alarms

I've found the alarm exact u are finding, just search Alarming at Market. I'm quite satisfied with it. Shake to snooze feature I most like :)

you don;t need the \media\audio\ at the start.
just shove the ringtones, notifications and alarms folders in the root of the card.
