If you have a blackberry, you can turn you're phone off, and have it automatically turn on right when the alarm is going off.
I just created profile for when I'm sleeping. Everything is on silent, except for certain phone numbers where it'll vibrate.

PEOPLE - turn your phones off when you go sleepies lol |
shhhh it was 9:30... and I know theres nothing you love more than waking up to me :p
Jon Jon why dont you text messages in the middle of the night.. now i feel left out.
But in all seriousness I think that texting someone at 3am on a weekday is unnecessary - thats what emails are for. |

well I think my point is that everyone has a different time schedule, and if everyone just put their phones on silent there wouldn't be any problems |

I guess... I guess its just society norms that I tend to follow and I try to do all my calling and messaging during the times that I know the 'average person' would be awake. I know that almost everyone I know treats their cell phone as an extension of themself - and never turns it off. |

Agreed, but I am a little bias.
I leave my phone on, never know when an emergency will happen. |

My cell phone stays in my car...unless I am expecting a call.
The way I see it....if I'm at home (call me at home), if I'm at work (call me at work), if you can't reach me at those numbers try my cell phone.....if I don't answer it means I'm busy doing something or I don't want to talk to you. |

agreed. between bartending, night classes, and partying, my schedule was off, but mainly i sleep until early afternoon. phone calls from people thinking that once 10am hits, its fine to call, has made me turn my phone to silent 24/7. now i don't answer any calls. |

on silent at night and between 11-7
lol
if I don't put it on silent at work, I think the office next door hears my "Voodoo people" :nervous: |

Yep. Mute your phones! I do on mine if I am having a nap or passing out but the alarm on that is very useful.
I thought you meant etiquette in terms of using it while out with friends, picking it up while in mid convo etc, which I'll admit I've done myself but hate it. |

When i sleep ... all data, sms & calls are blocked (execpt family members)
As soon as i pick up the phone from the table, all settings are back to normal (after the given "set" time) |
