I also spent quire a bit of time looking for the right reminder utility,
tried a few of them, and ended up with remind as well. There's probably
a few ways you can get remind to pop up reminder windows and probably
even a tray icon with something like kdocker, but what I ended up doing
is run a script through anacron every 24 hours which checks remind for
events and sends me an email reminder for each event on that day. This
way it's in my inbox so I don't just click the reminder away and end up
forgetting about it.
