It deduces sleep patterns by monitoring movement, so presumably you need to have your iPhone in your pocket while sleeping. http://www.rene.bz/2010/04/28/changing-way-i-wake-my-phone

Sorry if I made a mistake in this regard but I can't afford to give the appearance of allowing spam as it encourages misbehavior. James: A quick web search suggests that SleepTracker is a software only thing, if that is the case then it isn't going to be nearly good enough. I want to know when I'm getting deep and REM sleep and when I'm half awake or in light sleep. http://www.myzeo.com/ The MyZeo sounds like it might be interesting, if the web site didn't suck so much I might have been able to learn enough about it to reference it in this post. But it seems that Zeo don't want non-Flash users to buy or review their products. Jason: You look like a spammer so I removed your company name and URL from your comment.

With the proliferation of apps, it will likely be that such monitoring capabilities will be offered by independent vendors rather than only the device manufacturers themselves.
