In an effort to conserve battery power, I do not want to use Reminders on my handheld (Axim X51v), but I still want them on my PC. I went to Settings --> Sounds and Notifications --> Notifications, chose Reminders from the drop-down list, and unchecked all options (Play sound, Display message on screen, Flash light for...). I created a dummy appointment in Outlook, set a reminder to go off in a couple of minutes, synced my device, then took it out of the cradle, shut it off, and set it down. Sure enough, at the designated time, the screen came on and the reminder popped up. If this is not what "Display message on screen" refers to, then what is that option? Is there anyway to completely disable reminders on the handheld but still use them on the desktop?
