Wake Up To Music Without any Additional Software

by Mike Snyder
I stumbled upon this by accident and decided to post it here in case someone else was wondering how to do it.

I have only tested this on a HP iPAQ rx3115 running "Pocket PC 2003 Pro" with "Windows Media Player 10 Mobile for Pocket PC". I assume it will work on other handhelds and operating systems but do not know for sure (send a message to mike--at--wifidude.com if you verify that this works with your PPC and operating system and I will post the results here).
  • Open "Calendar" and schedule your wake-up time
  • Make sure the "Reminder" field is set to "Remind me"
  • Open Media Player and load/open your favorite tune/mp3
  • Tap the play button to start the music (make sure the volume is on/up)
  • Turn the PPC power off
When your next appointment (wake-up) comes up, the PPC will turn on and Media Player will pick up where it left off when you powered off the PPC.
