I recently bought an iPhone 3gs. It comes with a pair of apple earbuds that have a remote and a microphone.
I used to have an iPod, that has a set of earbuds that have a remote but not a microphone. When I long pressed the center button of the remote on the earbuds, the iPod said the title and artist of the current playing song.
On the iPhone though, when I long-press the center button (of the remote with microphone), it starts voice control.
Is there a way to change the iPhone settings to resemble the iPod settings? I don't ever use voice control, yet I do use the microphone for calling people while on my bike.

When the beep sounds you can ask:
"What song is this?"
It will speak the title, and artist. There isn't a way to turn this off sadly.
