Hi all,

As one who doesn't yet have an iphone, the problem is this issue of requiring a 
headset.  I don't *want to *have to wear a head set to use this phone.  Apple 
really needs to address this.  I was really hot about getting the iphone, now 
I'm pulling back.  If I can't answer and end a call unless I'm wearing 
headphones, this isn't a phone I'm ever going to buy.
Best,
Donna
