(plus some Smart Alarms bashing)

The one I use is Comments 2.0x, which will do the reminder business
quite nicely; the time settings are much more flexible than Smart
Alarms in terms of repeating messages.

Of course, Comment also lets you add "Post-It(TM)" type notes to
documents, spreadsheet cells, etc.

It's published by Deneba Software and reasonably inexpensive,
considering how useful it is.
