Now that I use a Palm/Pilot as my primary timepiece, I miss the hourly beeping I used to get from my digital watch.

Here is evidence that someone attempted this idea at least once. Unfortunately the download link is broken and the author's whereabouts are unknown. [l2g, Mar 08 2000, last modified Oct 17 2004]

Turns your palm into an alarm clock, complete with hourly chimes. [Cedar Park, Oct 17 2004]

People who go to the same movie theaters you do probably don't miss it at all. ;-)

I'm very conscientious about silencing all of my personal gadgets in quiet environments. The main reason I do this is probably that it gives me the moral high ground to yell at people who don't. =^>

Would enjoy a 'Big Ben' style chime, with programmable repeating blackout periods.

Google first, bake later. [link]

Simpler solution: Turn the watch's beeps back on.
