Sound control and vibration only mode rant

[asuh]

I love the fact that MotoBlur provides toggles for 4G, Wifi, Bluetooth, etc. However, I don't see one for sounds. I don't like having to push the down-button on the side of the phone, either, b/c sometimes I forget it's still emitting no sound.

I think the sound controls are one of the weakest parts of this MotoBlur's or Android's software so far. At night, before I go to bed, I just want to tap on the vibration toggle so that ringing and text messages vibrate only. However, when I push the down-button on the side of the phone, I can't hear anything half the time. I don't know if it's just silent or also on vibration.

Is there a toggle widget I don't know about in MotoBlur?

I highly recommend Elixr 2, but I've been frustrated with the sound options too
