What's the best phone profile program for the XV6800?

I'm looking for phone profile program that will give the user more flexibilty than the standard three profiles (normal, vibrate and silent only). I'd also like to be able to set filters so that calls from restricted, caller id blocked etc get sent straight to voicemail while calls from say home will ring through. The reason I'm looking for one is that at times I'll put the device in the normal mode and then miss calls because the pda portion volume is set to high but the phone volume is at zero. This gets very annoying when the missed call notifications go off and then the voicemail notices.

I'm using a Verizon XV6800 with the MR1 upgrade, SPB Mobile Shell and SPB Pocket Plus. SPB has notifications of missed calls, SMS and and new voicemails already.

I've come across three programs - Phone Alarm (which Pocket PC rated very highly), SPB Phone Profile and Phone Alarm Lite. I did a little research on SPB's forums and some people have had problems getting the profiles to work properly with 6.1 while others haven't.

Which program would you recommend and have you had any problems?

Thank you for the advice.

Phone Alarm.

The main 'problem' with, it is so complete, that it is a bit complex. You need to spend a LOT of time setting it up.

Thanks, I think I'll download the trial version tomorrow and give that a try.

Does Phone Alarm have a call filter built in by any chance?

Never seen anything with a call filter.

SPB phone profile does - you can set up a "white list" where the calls ring through and a "black list" so calls from other numbers get sent straight to voicemail without ringing.

Spb doesn't seem to compatible with 6.1 though according to thier website.

Will give Phone Alarm a try.

Thanks!
