Well for me it's working very well. This morning it woke me up twenty minutes ahead of my scheduled alarm time and I got up feeling great. I change the alarm sound every couple of days so I don't get used to the tune and on the whole I'm really impressed. Each time the alarm sounds I'm sort of ready for it and not surprised at all.

If it were just a placebo effect then I'd expect I'd be back to the old habit of waking up and not wanting to get up which I'm not so I'm happy!

I'm always awake before any alarm I set - stress, don't you love it!

I've now been re-introduced to my bed that I used to have in my old flat - it's been in storage since my move, so so nice to have a proper bed back, but it means I'll have to re-teach this thing. I'm still not convinced by it at all - surely it shouldn't have peaks at all if you leave it on your bedside table since it doesn't move at all? Anyway, if it's gimmicky an it helps people feel better in the morning then it's all good. I don't think it'll improve my sleep/wake up.

Even though Sleepcycle didn't work for us, I really liked the alarm sounds in there so I stripped them out and made a Cydia package to install them on the phone to be used as normal alarm sounds.

You can grab it via Cydia from here... "http://iphone.pigmo.co.uk/bd/"

Ooh, nice, I'm very tempted. Only problem I have with that is I'm not sure you can delete sources (repositories) once you've added them. Nothing at all against you but I like to keep my source list as clean as possible as there's less chance of Cydia going fubar that way (it tends not to like it if a source repository breaks).

You can delete sources, I've done it several times.

OK, for some reason I thought you couldn't. Don't know where I got that idea from.

Edit - and done - thank you.

I've been using it for 43 nights now with an average 6hrs 50mins sleep. Its been great so far although recently I'm back to the 'don't want to get up/I hate mornings' kind of mind set. Maybe I also need to change alarm sound also.
