Wow, technology has come a long way....

You have the option to turn it off on your phone if you wish. And my next phone will also have that option.

Haha, yeah. That's the appeal of Android. The level of Apple lockdown in iOS can be pretty frustrating. I can't change the SMS tone without jail-breaking? what a joke. No platform loyalty here, by the way.

Try to borrow an Android phone for a few weeks, if possible. That would be my recommendation. You might find yourself looking at other options after that. It took a while to start seeing the annoying glitches with mine. The iPhone4 seems to make a far more reliable phone, regardless of its deficiencies.

Apologies for my ramblings. I spend a lot of time building and testing websites/web-apps on these phones :)
