You probably won't like my answer, but my solution was to simply stop using
all-day events. I've edited all of my birthdays, anniversaries, etc. to be
work-day timed events- (9AM-6PM or thereabouts.) If you want the alarms to
sound at, say, 11AM, you could set the "all day event" to be a 11AM-whatever
event and have the reminder set to go off a week early.
(My reasons for doing this were actually different than yours- in my case it
was the time-shifting of the events when traveling. If I was on the east
coast instead of home in Denver when an all-day event occured, the phone
shifted the event to a multi-day event starting at 10PM the day before! Now
my 9-6 "all day" event becomes a 7-4 event, but it at least stays on the
right day!)

I guess that's what I'll have to do. That will work for all my events
anyway, that just leaves my Bank automatically texting me at 5 am. I'll
change all my events, and then start working on the Bank later - I feel
an email campaign coming on!

You'll have to come and live in the UK - the worst this tiny island has
to deal with is slightly different sunrise and sunset times in the
Northern and Southern extremities :-)

Good luck with that. We have been complaining about 12 Midnight alarms for
all day events, and the day spanning 'feature' for years. Possibly with the
clean sweep of WinPhone 7, these features will finally be retired. Would be
nice if we had the option of shifting appointments, or not, when the carrier
signal changes our time and time zone too, but I can't muster that much
optimism, or risk exposing myself to that disappointment, so I'm assuming
not.

The updates were applied a long time agao. I ending up completely shutting
down the phone for other reasons and removing the battery, and the calendar
problem has gone away for now, but I have seen it in the past and I know it
will come back again.
Thanks for the advice.
