SuperAlert is what I use (money _probably_ well spent). I set up the alarms to be silent and then configure an audible alarm, repeat etc. in SuperAlert and this way I ensure that the machine is switched on a few seconds before (to give it time to "warm up :) ) and I don't run the risk of my battery going flat if I'm not around to ack the alarm.
Having said that I had SuperAlert running the other day when I was late for work so it _might_ be the case that the clock app hadn't registered the alarm before I switched off. If the clock didn't register then SA won't have hooked in to the new time and nothing would have happened. Let's see how it goes.
BTW, SuperAlert ties in to other strange alarms. There's one that runs at midnight and SA says that it's not a real alarm and will be silent. The trouble is that the Axim lights up at midnight and when your eyes are used to the dark it's damn bright! :) I unchecked the setting to light up the Axim when an alarm goes off and that solved the problem.
