Cellular Phones/BB Curve 8900 outgoing call volume

Question
I've had a few people mention that my voice is too loud when I speak.  I'm fairly soft spoken so I know it's not me.  I've searched hi and low any solutions to controlling outgoing call volume.  My mom says she has to hold her phone away from her head when I call.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Greg

Answer
The volume that others hear when you call them has nothing to do with you or your phone and everything to do with the other end. Tell your mom to lower the volume when you call. It's actually a good thing, not a bad one. You can't control the calling volume on the other end, only the recipient can. I hope this helps. thanks. DebiN
