Anyone know why this delay is occuring? I would assume the first four "fake" rings is the network trying to locate my phone. Then it follows it by the "real" rings that I hear on my end.
Any ideas, or how to avoid this? (It is really annoying, and not only to myself)
Thanks.

You might want to try and reset the iPhone first. You need to do this about once a week. Push and hold down top sleep/wake butn until the slide comes on, slide to turn off and let it shut down. The push sleep/wake again to turn back on. Then call youself from a landline. Just a try.
