i feel it is, i have used everyday with a task killer since the device came off and as always worked without giving me any issues... if you dont use advanced task killer or another task kiler than you should be good to go otherwise like being said add to exclusions list and that should fix the error.

I have used mine as my alarm and it has worked every day without a hitch. Snooze is defaulted at 10mins, where WM was at 5mins.

Has worked great for me so far, and I never had any issues with my alarm on the TP2. Woke me up every time I didn't want it to.

Yea im sure your using task killer, cuz "clock" doesn't crash. i had this was my problem Monday morning, but today i was fine cuz i put the clock app on the ignore list on task killer last night.

Oh and FYI, u can set the snooze time to shorter or longer times by hitting the menu button within the alarm options. pretty cool.

Has anyone tried moving over the "Loud Buzzer" file from WM?

Same thing happened to me, I also am using ATK. you must uncheck the clock app in ATK and it'll work everytime.

I use open alarm works fine for me. And I don't use atk to automatically kill apps I do it manually on when needed. I have not had a problem so far. Every once in a while with winmo it would crash or hang or just not go off so I know what you mean it sucks when it does glitch.
