Viperboy: I've searched on this issue high and low, here and everywhere, but I've come up completely dry. As a last resort, maybe you know of a work-around or not....
I very much want to sign-up and get the Droid. Since I am deaf, the vibration notification option is of critical importance. And getting repeat notifications is doubly-important when the Droid's vibration registers less seismic activity than an ant's sneeze.
Sadly, the "Missed Call" app does not cover email notifications. Nor can I find anyone mentioning an alternate email app that has its own built-in notification function to allow for repeat vibration notifications. An alternate email app wouldn't address Gmail and I wouldn't want to totally give up push email by having to do all email through an alternate email app.
I have to admit being rather baffled that a cutting edge smartphone platform such as Android appears to lack the ability to do such a pre-school task as repeat email notifications (that also works with vibration mode). Grabbing a smartphone out of a holster over and over and over again to check for messages is oh-so-snail-mail ... like sitting in the window watching for the mail carrier to deliver the day's mail.
If I sign-up for the Droid right now, without a workable way to be alerted & reminded about incoming email, I'd be cursing it within the week. And ready to turn it into a thousand pieces before the end of the 30-day return period.
So, before I totally eliminate the Droid from my shopping list (and all Android devices be default), I'm making a last-gasp shout for help on this issue ... before going under water for the third time. Thx for any insights you can offer.
