I like Sleep Cycle. You lay it on your bed and it uses the accelerometer to measure how deeply you're sleeping. In the morning, it wakes you while you're sleeping lightly, rather than an exact time. Avoids that feeling that you were just blown up by your alarm clock.

I was looking at that, and was curious if it worked. I was also concerned with the way I toss and turn all night that it would wake me 2 hours after I go to bed.

Ambiance, for those with trouble sleeping like me. Countless "white noise" type options to mix and match, plus fade out options for the sleep noise gnerator, and fade in options for your alarm sound. I currently use my own rainstorm, windstorm, train on the tracks noise to fall asleep to, and we wake to a Chinese gong that slowly increases in volume over 45 minutes so we don't get jarred awake. Well worth the 99 cents it costs

Can't really make guarantees for you. I can tell you it works fine although I very often need to get out of bed for a little while . It keeps a graph of your whole night and just shows it as being awake a while.

I just got a word game called "Bookworm". It is made by Pop Cap, the makers of Bejeweled, Peggle, and other good games. If you like word games, check it out! Very fun.

Anyone know of a way to bypass iTunes to load videos to the iPhone. I have some video files with quality settings that are not supported by iTunes but will play fine on the device. I just need a way around iTunes.

The developer of the video compression software I use reported that the iPhone 3GS is capable of playing high profile video files that are not accepted by iTunes.

Try googling for "iTunes alternatives sync."
I used SharePod once on my iPod to retrieve some music. Not on my iPhone though.
