Help Fascinate vibrate only ????

Is there a way to make the phone vibrate only. Kind of like a silent mode. But have all the notifications on(vibrate only). I am new to smart phones, old nextel user, and very happy so far. It is like using my laptop as a mobile phone:)
It is a Samsung Fascinate with verizon service. Thanks in advance for any help.

First, you'll have to turn on vibrate for everything you want to vibrate, many of which are available in the settings of the app of interest, ie messaging app, gtalk app, etc. You can't turn them on all at once without first manually going to each app and turning on the vibrate option in that app's respective settings menu. For phone vibrate on calls, go to settings/sounds & display/phone vibrate.

Once vibrate is turned on for individual apps, go to settings/sounds & display/ silent mode. This will turn off the sound, but the apps that have vibrate on will continue to vibrate.

The also make toggle widgets, such as beautiful widgets (from the market) that allow you to set the phone to vibrate only, or completely silent by simply clicking on the vibrate or silent widget.
