Blackberry phones could be set to vibrate first, then ring. This was handy on default, because in meetings, restaurants, etc., the phone would vibrate first giving the owner time to pick it up and either silence the call, or whatever.

I made my own iPhone ringtones with 6 seconds of silence at the beginning. That way, the iPhone starts vibrating, but the ring has no tone. Any audio editor like Goldwave, Audacity, or Macsome can do this.
