If I go to the clock and set an alarm it plays a sound at a certain time.
It does this even if the N800 is powered off. In fact, IIRC, it pops up a little
window asking whether it should turn on.

So it's do-able.

Maybe someone should investigate and create a wiki page?

If it is alarmd doing this then it would be nice if it could be integrated into
something like cron/at and into the qpe calendar app.
