Disabling Sound calendar alarm BUT VIBRATING CALENDAR ALARM

How could you specify that you want a vibrating calendar alarm without getting the uncomfortable sound that comes each time an alarm sounds?

Or could you specify the duration of the alarm? when you are not at your place and this alarm sounds, it is very uncomfortable.

In your profile,

if you set
incoming call alert on beep once
Message alert tone off
Vibrating alert on

There is always a sound that repeats until you push on the snooze or stop button.

The only way to have an alarm poping on the screen without sound is to put the incoming call alert on silent but then you don't get any vibrating even if vibrating is on.

:cry:

I would like to get the same way of working as for SMS. You get an sms and the system beep once and vibrates but stops after. When calendar alarm, this is not the case. In the 6310, you can specify this.
