Does this phone require a data plan?

I recently got a Solstice and really like it. I want to be able to use earphones for occasional lengthy conversations at home. I bought these: http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-Stereo-Headset-Earpho nes-ATT-Samsung-Solstice-A887_W0QQitemZ360223 452369QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash =item53defdacd1
I cannot hear the person talking to me, but they can hear me. Is there anything I can do to make it work properly, or do I need to purchase something else? I plugged it into the charger slot. Thanks for your help.

is there a way to lock the phone when in a pocket or purse

I just received this phone and so far I am liking it, however this morning I woke up and it had a message on the desktop that says no event... how do I get rid of that....also...is there a quick way to put this in vibrate mode instead of going through settings... thanks.

can messages be checked while on a call?

anyone know where I can get some loud ring tones for this phone even with the phone on maximum volume the stock ring tones ring really low...

is this the new Omnia like Verizon had?

I've look at a bunch of different sites trying to find info on this phone but I have one question. Since it looks almost identical to the Samsung Impression, does this phone also have an ascending volume that you can't turn off like the Impression? The Impression is my current phone and the volume issue is my main gripe with it. I'm hoping the Solstice isn't the same in that respect.

Will this sync with Outlook? Does this need a 3rd party solution?
