PSP operating as an alarm clock?

Configurable interrupt scheme for waking up a system from sleep mode

Abstract
A configurable interrupt scheme provides a way to automatically wake up a system from sleep mode at software configurable times. The scheme helps to save battery life in portable devices because sleep mode can be entered while applications and/or games are running due to the ability to automatically wake up from sleep mode at configurable times. The scheme operates by receiving a specified wake up time in the system during a standard mode of operation, comparing the specified wake up time to a current time during the sleep mode of operation, and waking up the system from the sleep mode of operation in response to the current time being equal to or greater than the specified wake up time. The system can then automatically run or continue running an application or game.

Not 100% sure what the quoted section has to do with it but yes it SHOULD act as an alarm clock.

I was hoping for that feature just today actually.

Would be a nice feature; but I think they'd have to increase the system's volume via software for it to be truly effective.

cool, there was another homebrew piece that allowed you to use it as an alarm, but it needed to be turned on the whole night
