DiddleBug is an electronic PostIt note that you can set with an alarm that will remind you of appointments or other things. It is much quicker and easier to schedule an alarm in DiddleBug than in the built-in DateBook applicaton. Just scribble something on the screen and select the alarm time from a pop-up list. You can even assign a hardware button to automatically jump to a new, blank reminder for those hurried notes. Other features include snoozing and locking of reminders. This version also supports categories, a PalmOS-compliant list view, "private" records and sketches with attached text notes and titles. DiddleBug is based on the Diddle sketching engine, so users familiar with Diddle will feel right as home using DiddleBug. It has the same hideable titlebar, and the same menu shortcuts.
