Prepaid phone with ringing alarms

I need a phone that I can use on a prepaid basis, preferably with a verizon. I need to be able to set the phone once to remind me to do something everyday at a certain time. I need to hear an alarm ring to remind me at this time and I need a little type written message to pop up with what the reminder is. I need to be able to set alarms to ring to remind me of other scheduled events (meetings, appointments, etc.) later in the year. Basically, it needs to be like a PDA with a calendar. I need to be able to wear it. If I have to hook it up to the computer to set alarms, I need it to be Macintosh compatible, through either a USB or firewire port. I'd prefer to be able to use the phone worldwide.

Where can I try one?
Will I need to buy additional software to do what I have outlined in my questions?
Will the battery last all day if charged overnight everyday?

Please try to answer all my questions and thanks a lot for the help.
 
Does it have to be Verizon? You will limit yourself with Verizon, esepcially if you want to use it worldwide. You should opt for a GSM prepaid, T-Mobile or Cingular, and you can use an unlocked phone if you need to travel outside the US.

As for syncing with a Mac, if you have Bluetooth on your Mac, you can easily sync most phones, especially the RAZR, most Motorola's, Blackberry Pearl, most Sony Ericsson phones.

I know that for a fact, my SE W810i will do everything that you mentioned above, including syncing with a Mac.
 
I can set multiple alarms. When the alarm goes off, it rings, and a message pops up on the screen with the task that you entered.

Let's say at 3:15 PM, you want the phone to remind you to stop at the dry cleaner's on the way home. You can either enter it as a task, or you can simply set the alarm to remind you every day. You can also pick just a certain day, like Friday, and it will only go off on Friday.

Alarms do not cost a thing. It is just a function within the phone.
