I suppose there could be a setting in the alarm for how long you wanted
it to keep playing.  Of course, this doesn't answer what happens when
you are playing a file and it goes off, but this is something I suspect
APH can deal with.

Subject: [bookport] caution about using the alarm


To see what would happen I set the alarm for file and external beep.
While I 
was listening to an mp3 file the alarm went off, I heard the tones and
the 
only key that worked was the 2 key for pausing or reading, all others
gave 
the touch tone. The only cure was a reset. I think I'll pass on the
alarm. 
I'm wondering how practical it is. If it should go off while you were
away 
from the unit you might come back to a dead battery depending on how
long 
the alarm sounded. If you knew you were going to be using the unit I
suppose 
it could be used to remind you of something.
