Android Alarm Clock vs. Blackberry alarm

Hey guys, quick question about the alarm clock feature on android phones. I'm planning on buying the Incredible when it's released to replace my horrible BB Storm.

Here's my question...

When i plug my BB into the charger, it recognizes that its charging and automatically switches into "bedside mode" (changes my sound profile, displays the clock, and dims the screen way down). When I unplug my BB, it recognizes that its unplugged, switches out of bedside mode and switches back to my previous sound profile.

Does android do this or is there an app that does something like it? I know it sounds lazy, but I'm just used to plugging it in, and the BB doing everything else. BTW, I really hate my BB and excited about the new Incredible.

Might be something here, maybe DeskHome?
I use the desk dock with an N1, and an app called Timeriffic which works off Time based rules to keep the phone quiet at night.
