can anyone recomend an application ??? ...

[Dave Selby <dave_arahan@yahoo.co.uk>]

I need an application to remind me when certain events are due, ie wifes 
birthday etc !!, 

I have tried korganiser, which has an alarm facility to flash a warning on 
the screen. This is AOK if the system is up and I am logged on as that user 
at the time of the alarm. When I log on later, no alarm.

I need an application that will warn me when an event is comming up, and if I 
am not logged at the the time of this pre-set alarm, it will remember the 
alarm and alert me as soon as I do log in.

I have also looked at remind, but I could do with a GUI, and I have looked at 
gkrellm with the reminder plugin, ... I dont need all that info !!

Any suggestions ?
Is there a way to tweek korganiser ?
