Power Vibration Wanted

I just got G1 phone and I think its awesome.

The biggest weakness on this phone is vibration. Even I put G1 phone o my computer desk next to me. I cant feel a thing seriously but with my old Blackberry I can.

I really need it badly since I am deaf.

I found a funny app called Vibrator and vibration actually can last longer than the notification setup. I figure someone can help me setup fast and simple apps that allows us to tweak vibration to be stronger.

I know Blackberry has range 1 to 10, let me decide what works best for me.

How do I formally request Android Team or Google/TMO to look at it?

Appreciated it.

I can feel mine quite well ... possibly you have a lemon ... I would take it to a TMO center and compare it with a store unit ...

I even lay mine on my bed and can still feel it vibrating ...

Like what Justjimpc said you may want to take it and have tmo look at it seeing as how mine vibrates quite obnoxiously. Also in the market look for a app called SMS Popup, it allows you text messages to pop up like the Iphone but also you can set it to vibrate in bursts when you recieve a text, you can also adjust your led color to whatever you want. its pretty nice you have you phone vibrate 5 or 6 times when you get a text.
