Notification bar notifications.

I find it rather annoying that there are no persistent notifications on this phone (HTC Magic). For instance, if you miss a call or a text, you receive the initial notification, and an entry is made in the notification bar, but that is it. It won't ring every 5min or whatever to let you know that you are missing something.

I have seen several apps that attempt to address this, but none that can cover all notifications. For instance, Missed Call seems to be popular, and though the developer has made quite a bit of effort to support most functions, it still can't do simple things like Gmail notifications. All the apps out there seem to be able to do Calls/SMS/MMS and I give props to Missed Call for handling the more obsqure things like BT and Battery life, but it still doesn't cover everything.

The whole reason I have this phone, is so I can stay connected at all times. I'm finding that dificult because sometimes I will get a IM and not even know it for quite some time untill I check the phone.
