Motorola Backflip

I am looking very serious at the BackFlip but want to know from those that have the phone about the ring volume. My problem I have with the phone I have now is that I can't hear it ring if it is in the other room. The i-Phone I can hear. So can anyone tell me if it rings how loud it is.

Also any comparisons good or bad with the iphone? I am also looking at it. The only thing I don't like is that you can't insure it.
