Two patterns of vibration are available - either 'Bzzzzzzz' or the doubtless equally therapeutic 'Bzz-Bzz-Bzz-Bzz-Bzz'. This app is also handy if you find yourself in need of a way to run your battery down quickly.

The snappily-titled Green Charging Energy Save will alert you to a complete charge with more than the usual mild beep - a configurable tone will sound when the battery is full and tyhe app also displays useful stats about remaining talk time, etc.
