Sorry, but the iPhone has only ONE speaker; the other side is a microphone.

This just saved me a trip to the apple store.

People don't read manuals? Shocking!

And for the record, I didn't know about the single speaker either, but a quick call to 1-800-MY-IPHONE cleared that up for me. Oh, and I did read the manual when I got it.

And BTW, I decided to take a look, and I can't find any info about the speaker/microphone in the manual that came with my iPhone. Are you talking about the 22 page fine print iPhone manual, or the Finger Tips manual? There is no tiny 5 pager in my box. Where is it "CLEARLY documented"?
