Poor call volume

I purchased two Droid Bionic phones yesterday. Both phones have the same problem. When making calls, I can barely hear the person on the other end. Yes, the in-call volume setting is at its max. I'm pretty sure that the first call I made on the phone sounded normal, but ever since I can barely make out what the other person is saying. If you change to speakerphone, you can hear the person on the other end normally. And I'm pretty sure this isn't just the way this phone works - the volume is so incredibly low that it can't be normal.

Anyone with the same problem? Any ideas on a fix? I waited for 45 minutes yesterday to get through to tech support, and then I gave up.

Nevermind - I figured it out - it was my own fault.

Have you tried hooking a bluetooth headset to one of your Bionics an see if the Volume is any better or use the Bluetooths volume to get a better Volume level.
