I, like others, had run into the stuck headset mode issue. At those times either blowing into the jack or q-tip/alcohol worked like a champ. But now, not only does it get stuck in headset mode after removing a headset, but it will randomly switch to headset mode. For example, the other day I made a couple of calls w/o the headeset and no problems. About 30 minutes, still w/o inserting a headset, I tried to make a call and wondered why I couldn't hear anything; the phone was stuck in headset mode! This is happening more and more frequently.

I have had this unit since last September.

Any ideas what to do next? I assume that something inside the jack is pretty messed up. Any suggestions on possibly getting another unit? Go to a store first or straight through Sprint or Palm?
