LocalNotification Native Extension on iOS

I'm trying to use the example for a Local Notiificaiton on iOS/Android (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air/extensions/notification.html) but there are gaping holes in its implementation and I have no idea how or where to get my questions anwsered.  In iOS, there is an option for defining a fireDate, which allows you to defined when you want the notification to occur.  This is completely ignored in the article and since no source code is provided for the native enxtension, I can't even easily piece something together on my own. Can anyoneshed some light on how I could get this to work?  Defining a time for a notificaiton seems fundamental to me and the fact that it was omitted without any mention is puzzling. And just as a comment to Adobe, the documentation is severly lacking for Native Extensions in general. And the fact that this example was showcased on the 'Welcome' screen in Flex 4.6 provides a false sense of completeness.

Has anyone been able to get this to work?
