My fiancee is in Iraq so I don't wanna miss any of his calls... therefore, my Pearl stays on the bed next to my pillow.

I have to assume that if the phone rings while the Pearl is on your pillow, it has to be your fiancée wanting to chit chat.
May the phone always ring while the Pearl is on your pillow.

lol thanks. I wish the Military would provide phone cards for our military personnel, but I guess that's asking too much... My Pearl hasn't rang in a while.

Bed Time
My 8703e is always on. It sleeps with me in my bed. I should get it a little pillow and blanket for it.

On my desk. But lately, before bedtime, I would go on the internet, reading TMZ and chatting on BBM. After that gets boring, I start renaming files so it's all organized =S I go to bed at 2am, but don't actually "sleep" till 4am Save me.

Pillow is acceptable, blanket is unnecessary and a bit much.
Bonus Tip: Pillow should be satin or silk. No fringe. The Pearl prefers pillows containing royal colors, blue or red.
Bonus Tip: Word on BBF is that spending more than $500 for the pillow is excessive. So don't go overboard.

Charging for the day ahead, nice and neatly on my nightstand next to my alarm clock. All alerts in high, incase of an emergency. There have been a few 3am weeknight pranks, but they are very few and far between. My Pearl is my back up alarm, and I know when she goes off, it's time to get out of bed.

Its with me at all times sadly, but there is the odd time I turn the data off. Its always on the table beside me though, I can never predict what urgent thing could happen while I sleep... but it wont be looked at until I get me my Timmies coffee!

I like to turn off my phone at night and give it some rest. It works hard during the day, and can use the rest at night.

On nightstand, goes to sleep at 11, up at 6.
Better not let my BB see that other BBs get a pillow, he will become jealous!

My 8700c
usually gets left on the dresser. I always leave it in vibrate mode, but for calls only. Sometimes it vibrates at night. Sometimes I wake up. No biggie.
If someone really wants to get a hold of me, they come and bang on my window!

On one of my two nightstands. Leftside nightstand on a regular night, rightside nightstand on a charging night. I've only had my Pearl a few days but I'm thinking a pillow may not be too bad of an idea. Maybe one of those little hammocks for when the two of us are watching tv. I just got a new BT headset which sleeps next to the Pearl.
Oh, and I've always used my cell phone as my primary alarm. My tv is my back up alarm. I was a little upset that the alarm only chirped three times but I just read the above posts and am now trying one of those ringtones mentioned above. Trance I think it was called.

I put it on my nightstand...but I leave it on. I like to check my emails in the middle of the night.
But of course, I put it delicately on something that would keep it from scratching up.

At night?
I try to keep 8700g away from my G/F so she doesn't read my text messages that I get from other girls!
