For the seven or more years that I used various versions of Gorilla Haven's DateBk on my Palm, I got 2-3 week warnings of birthdays, anniversaries on the like.
It was great. I rarely missed a card or an event
Then I got my 21st century iPhone, with a locked down, no API, Apple authored Calendar.app. A calendar that allows a maximum 2 day reminder of events.
Events like my parents' anniversary, now 2 days away.
Two $!#$#$ days!
That's the problem with devices built by children. In their world, 2 days is a long time.
Nettie, how many days warning does the Pre calendar allow you?
Update: It's unchanged in iPhone 3.0.
Update 6/20: The Pre isn't all that much better - suprisingly!

It must be something in Cupertino water supply.

... for all-day events in the Pre calendar you can remind 1/2/3/7 days before. For meeting-type events you can remind 5/10/15 mins and 1 day...
