Phantom Phone Vibrations

I experience this everyday on the drive to office and sometimes in meetings too -

Phantom Cell Phone Vibrations: The phenomenon of experiencing a sensation of vibration in the pocket-region, leading one to believe their cell phone is vibrating. The sensation can be triggered by other vibrations, such as the engine in a car, but can also appear when no external stimuli is present.

The same cannot be said about Phantom Cell Phone Ringing. But I have observed vibroglaze during meetings.

I experience this phantom vibration everyday. Happy to know that I am normal
I've experienced Phantom Cell Phone vibrations. Its weird. The hand goes towards the pockets to check out if the phone's really buzzing!
And if you switch off the vibrations, it feels more wierd when the cell phone rings without the feedback!

I experience it at least once a day as well and often times my phone is not even in my pocket. I have experienced it while walking sitting it realy doesn't seam to matter. I went on a trip this past weekend with two of my brothers and they experience the same thign. One of them experiences it in the opposite pocket where he keeps his phone. Both of them keep their phone in ring. I keep mine on vibrate. Why doesn't anyone but me seem to think this is bad. I also get headaches on the side of my head where I talk. I have since got a hoster and an ear piece for my cell phone. Is there any research that has been done on this?
