Earpiece Volume on IN Calls?

I've had a V3 since 11/04 with zero problems and bought a V3m with a second number last week, specifically so I can have unlimited IN calls. But, for some reason, I have a REALLY hard time hearing the person when they call. I have no issues so far with out of network calls, and have received many, many calls from this person from their cell to my V3 and to my land line before without this dufficulty, so I don't suspect it's their phone.

Does anyone else have the same expereience? Does this make any sense at all, from a technical perspective? Would a wired headset perhaps help and, if so, anyone have a recommendation (obviously would need a mini-USB adaptor)? Anyone have the stereo bluetooth headset, and how is the volume on incoming calls...

The V3m comes with an adaptor, the part number is SYN1505 and it looks like a dongle thing. I tried one out in the store, and it works well.

Thanks for the reply, I have the "dongle thingy" but a standard mini headphone plug doesn't fit. Do you need to buy a special earphone?

I think I answered my own question. A standard mini stereo plg is 3.5mm, while a wired headset plug is 2.5mm. The adaptor that comes with the V3m is made to connect to a wired headset with a 2.5mm plug.

So, it's off to Radio Shack to buy an in-ear wired headset.

Since you were referring to a call, I thought you meant using a regular 2.5mm handsfree headset, rather than a stereo one...

Yeah, I've never used a wired headset before, I have a Moto bluetooth headset for my V3, my wife has a bluetooth Jabra for her Nokia 6230, so I didn't realize they were different sized plugs.

I bought a Jabra wired headset today, and it works much better, not crazy about the wire, but sine it solves the problem I'll have to make do. It's a second phone anyway.

Thansk for the help.
