yes, you should definitely get an Android phone!
tasker is awesome. best Android app I've seen.
In short it carries out tasks (actions) based on contexts (a time, date, place, application or the state of something).
I've only just got it, but already it automatically switches my phone to vibrate when I'm in the office (it senses the wi-fi network) then turns the ringer on again when I leave, switches the phone to silent when it's time for bed then an hour later turns off wi-fi, 3g and auto sync to save power.
then 5 mins before my alarm goes off in the morning it comes off silent, switches on the wi-fi and 3g and auto sync so everything is back to normal when I wake up.
you can make it do pretty much anything you can think of though, it's awesome.
