Wink Puzzel alarm

I have created a Puzzel Alarm which should help me to get out of bed.
When an alarm goes of the snooze or dismiss button are easily pressed.
So I wanted to make an application that shows a puzzel before the
alarm can be dismissed. I'm still working on it, but some more info
and an installable version can be found in this post on my site
http://goo.gl/5YnIy There are also some screenshots. Can I ask some of
you to test the application and give some problems, remarks,
(performance) tips, ... to make my application better?

Hopefully the concept is already nice and could it be useful for more of you guys

The alarm I use has a 5x5 or 6x6 (forget which) pattern of dots and it randomly picks 3 or more dots and you must do the same within a period of time or you can't disable the alarm..

And the alarm works flawlessly, never a fault, works great, just a few bucks in the market.

Just saying..

Thx for the information. But as a developer it's always useful to learn more and this time I want to learn Android and Java.

So tips, remarks, comments are always welcome! I don't want to earn money with it

Somebody who knows how I can show the snooze and puzzle screen directly without first unlocking the phone? The platform where it is designed for is Android 1.6.
I already read that it's possible when I should make/port it to Android 2.1 or higher but with my X10 I'm still on 1.6 and want to be able to use it
