Why Not?

If there is an app for your iPhone to wake you up at a certain time (the alarm clock), why isn’t there an app to wake you up once you near your destination?

Has anyone seen an app that does that? (no, I’m not talking about sleepdriving in NM, but when my son and I rode the train in DC this week, it would have been easy to doze off and miss our destination).

UPDATE: thanks to my longtime computer friend, Jeff Sauer (who is also Deforest Kelly’s (Bones on the original Star Trek) nephew) – who pointed out “there is an app for that” called iNap.

and thanks to Facebook friends for finding the answer so fast!

So glad I didn’t have to say it, but now you know!
