How loud is loud?

I am seriously interested in the P800 and they are now hitting stores in Australia. I have fiddled with one briefly (mostly they are left in the packaging and not charged up). The thing that most concerns me is that the ringtones don't seem very loud. The store I was in was really noisey but there's no way the ringtones on maximum volume are as loud as my mates 6610.

I don't want a phone if I can't hear it ring!

Any feedback?

Also how loud is the speakerphone? Reviews suggest it is good.

If you change the ringtone to "Classic" you get an old fashioned ringtone from 50 years ago (RRRINNG.. RRRING) and it is loud!

The good thing is with a wav file as a ringtone you can amplify it or attenuate it on your PC to make it louder or quieter, then put it back on your phone.
