Hey, question, I switched over to Verizon from Nextel (yeah, Nextel)
and while it's nice to have service again, I've been through 2
different phones (VX8100 and VX8300) and tried a few others in the
store (One by Samsung) and all of them have the same problem. If I
talk at the same time as the person I'm talking to, their voice gets
all full of static. It's not just me as my friend has the same problem
with his 8300. To see what I'm
talking about, with a verizon phone call moviephones or verizon
tech support or any other number where there is an consistent
automated voice on the other side. Start to talk and see what happens
to the voice. It either drops out or gets all full of static. I never
had this problem with Nextel and my friends with Cingular don't have
it. It also doesn't happen when I use the speakerphone.  Any thoughts?

I'll be silly here and make a suggestion that you not talk at the same
time.  I mean, even without the static, I'm sure it's hard to hear
each other.

Fair point, but you actually end up talking over each other more when
you can't tell that the other person has started to speak.  The number
of "whats" goes up substantially
