I've had a Nokia 3650 for a year now. I like everything about the phone except that the vibrating alert is too loud - you can actually hear it mingled with the ring tone. It should just be felt, not heard, right?

Is this normal for this phone model or is it just me?

I wouldn't worry, I often think how rediculously loud the vibration motor is. Its certainly nothing unique to your phone :)

Sadly Nokia haven't got around to adding a volume control for the vibration motor yet :), so I'm afraid its just a matter of either switching it off or living with it.
