Need alarm clock program suggestions

AlarMe, my favorite alarm clock program is not WM5 compatible so I need suggestions for a replacement.

Absolute musts:
Multiple alarms
Alarm volume that's independent of the System volume.

Nice to have's:
Adjustable snooze interval.
BIG Snooze button. -- that's what I loved about AlarMe -- the entire screen (except for a little box) was the snooze button.

Any suggestions?
I've tried SPBTime and it sounds the alarm but doesn't turn on the screen.
I've tried enAlarmPPC but it doesn't have independant volume control.
Nyx Clock is very nice but its limited to one alarm.

I'll keep trying all that I find but any suggestions that meet my needs would nbe great.

Use Mortplayer. I used to use SPB Time as well, but i didn't like it at all. Mortplayer is great for waking me up in the morning. It plays my playlist out loud every morning and then switches my Axim volume back to what it was before the alarm. It's a MP3 player too.. great..!!!

Chronos looks pretty good.
A larger snooze button would be nice but it seems to work ok.

Burroak Software's pTravelAlarm claims WM5 compatibility but it also sounds the alarm without waking the screen.
What's up with that?

Any others?
