Another option is SmartSleep which is a system preference pane rather
than a Dashboard widget:

I actually often turn off Deep Sleep most of the time as I get
frustrated waiting 10-20 seconds for the Mac to write the Sleep image
every time the Mac goes to sleep. If you grab the Mac and sling it
into your laptop carry bag while it is writing the sleep image, it can
cause head crashes. It also means you can't instantly wake the Mac
back up again if your Mac goes to sleep accidentally. :-)
