After scouring the web, I came across this newsgroup. Hope it is the right
place to ask this question...

I'm a forgetful kind of guy, much to my wife's dismay. What I need is a
wristwatch that allows you to schedule multiple alarms days/weeks/months in
advance, preferably with a text feature. I believe PDA do this, but I don't
want to spend $200-400, plus they're not attached to you.

Examples:
Get up tomorrow at 6am.
Dentist appt next month on the 18th at 2:00. Set the alarm now! Goes off -
displays DENTIST.
Mon's birthday next week on the 10th. Set the alarm now. Goes off - displays
MOM_BDAY.

Get it? Surely this kind of thing exists.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Would this be the sort of thing you're looking for? :
http://www.hill-top-data.com/onHand.htm. Looks quite good really espes if
you don't want a PDA.

As well as the "onHand" suggested, might take a look at the "PC Unite"
by Casio and the Timex "DataLink"... though it's been awhile since I
have looked at the specs, and it may be more than you require feature
wise. The prices might be right for you though. Shop around, there
seem to be as may types of data-bank watches as there are people.
