Breitbart.tv has a short video clip of a local US news station showing that 35% of people prefer their Blackberry over their spouse in the bedroom. I am sure that percentage would be the same across all similar devices like the iPhone or a Windows Mobile device. That is just messed up.
Do you take your device to the bedroom, and if so, does the interaction with someone out there in the world somewhere take precedence over the relationship with the person just 6 inches away?

Like you, I find this incredibly sad. My iPhone stays on my nightstand because I use it as an alarm clock.

Sad, just sad
Somehow, I don't think that is the problem. It is clearly an issue with the individual and not the spouse. A different spouse probably wouldn't change the responses.

I'd love to use my Windows Mobile phone as an alarm clock.
Unfortunately, it would mean disabling the sounds for email, SMS messages, the ringer, and other apps that routinely sound off for whatever reason, but because WinMo doesn't support profiles at all, I just mute the device at night, which, of course, renders alarms useless.

I presume the iPhone handles profiles.
No, it doesn't do profiles that I'm aware of. I must not be as popular as you are! But I can turn off the ringer that way notifications don't sound, but the alarm will.

I have a number of friends and groups that are located around the world, so a 2am message from them for me is at noon for them, plus I get a number of automated reports from our system at work, which cranks up around midnight.

If you want profiles, try SBSH phone weaver. Control profiles from today screen or automatic profiles that change based on time, appointment category or busy status, ect.
