Choosing Silent or Vibrate

I have been trying to figure out a way to easily switch between silent and vibrate.

It seems like you can only have silent or vibrate + ring volume on the phone's ring volume control.

Am I missing something? Why does it go silent - vibrate - ring volume?

Is it possible to have the phone vibrate but not ring without going into the sound settings?

Third party apps work well for this ... I am a widget freak and love THIS APP by the dev Curvefish (they have several other nice widgets).

Hope this helps.

You can make a shortcut to your Sound Settings on your home page.  Long press on your homepage and pick Shortcuts>App Actions>Settings>Sound Settings.  That will give you one click access to change back and forth.

Or, as Greg Tal suggests, a widget will also do this. I like Widgetsoid which is a free app and will put various widgets either on your home screen or in your notification bar.  It's a powerful app, which also means there's a number of options.  So you would do well to look at the video on the Market and/or their Help page to learn how to fully exploit its options.
