Mine's fine still - only use it solo - no car kit. The ring is pretty quiet as you say, on max.... some tones are more 'loud' than others it seems (or noticeable). The speaker phone function is a winner in my view - as a result, in the car, I sit it on the dash and don't need hands free wires - just hit the little button as I cruise on.

Hey Truckster,

if you call your service provider they can generally reset your ring tone from their systems, it will not make the ring louder but they will set the default to 30 seconds instead of the standard 15 seconds. It may just give you enough time to hear it. Most times we do hear the ring it just doesn't register the extra 15 seconds gives you more time to get it out of your pocket.

cheers,

Ren

Truckster,
when you ring a call centre and you get an automated response service, when they ask you to punch in your number hit the hash key on the phone 3 or 4 times. This confuses the system and it then diverts you directly to a consultant. Saves heaps of time and really pi55e55 of the centre management.

Now remember I didn't tell any one this, (not my centre so I really don't care).
