this is by far the best and most customizable bedside app. Coming from a blackberry, this was a key app for me to find. I tried a bunch of different ones but none compare to this! Hope this helps some people looking for a good night time clock app!

Bedside (Night Clock)
https://market.android.com/details?...sMSwyLDEsIm5ldC5nZWVraGVyZC5iZWRzaWRlcHJvMiJd

From the Market description:
**********
Bedside is a very dimmed customizable night clock. You can change the colors of the letters/icons, as well as the background. You can even let it use your own wallpaper if you'd like.

The biggest feature of Bedside is the so-called "Bedside Mode". While in Bedside mode, a service will be started that will switch your phone to silent mode, and it will monitor for calls and text messages to allow them to ring through. You can configure a whitelist of callers, and there's even a separated list for text messages.

It includes a built-in screensaver mode that will remove everything from the screen and leave it completely black, and re-enable everything again once you touch or move your phone. This way, your screen won't have burn-in issues, and you can see the time quickly at night without having to lock/unlock your phone everytime.

Also features the ability to use the Text-to-Speech engine in your phone. Enable it in the preferences and Bedside will speak the time anytime you long-press on the screen while Bedside is open.

Bedside can be automatically started everytime you charge or dock your phone.

It does not include a built-in alarm. Use the alarm application that came with your phone or a 3rd party alarm application from the market. You can make Bedside link to any application when you click the icons shortcuts on the main clock display for the first time.

I see some SGS2 users are complaining about a few issues with this app... I would like to see more SGS2-related feedback here or in the Market before getting it... bedside mode is on of my favorite Berry features.

This is good but I like the clock on Kaloer Clock more. These apps were indispensable on Berry so I'm happy to see them on Android.

Did you check out the Bedside app? I downloaded the Kaoler app to compare and it doesnt have near the amount of features. It wants you to buy the 'Powerpack' to unlock half of the features. I dont care for that...
