Motorola went out of their way to make the volume buttons on the outside of the phone (exposed even when closed) make a loud, stupid beeping noise. These buttons are not recessed, so about three times a day this phone makes this stupid beeping noise from my pocket with EVERY step I take until I pull it out and carry it in my hand. (And no, I'm not fat and wearing tight pants.) No, there's no way to turn it off that T-Mobile or I can find, except to turn off the ringer, which kinda defeats the purpose of carrying the phone in my pocket anyway. I guess the point Motorola is trying to make is that this phone should always be carried in your hand and looked at. Who knows if Motorola knows how to turn off this beeping, since they don't offer customer support on this phone.I have to carry this phone for work, but at least I've saved two friends from making this Motorola Mistake by showing them how obnoxious this phone is to carry around.
