Suzanne I don't think that should be happening. Can they exchange your Iphone 
for another unit?

it happens within the first couple seconds. you say hello, the other person 
gets in hi, its so and so, then it happens. I hear VO say the persons name, or 
number if not in contacts, then says 0 2 with i think a double tap sound , then 
silence for a few more seconds, then the person is back. i would say its more 
like five or six seconds. never bothered to actually count. btw, i've only had 
it happen on an incoming call.
