Yeah, disappointing "feature" indeed. S60 dialpad speed dial was really really nice. too bad, but I guess I just have to get used to a bunch of other missing/differently implemented features.

A speed dial feature is something i miss aswell
This maybe has been discussed already,but i'll give it a whirl anyway.

It would be sweet if it was possible to directly launch a call from the contact widget on the desktop.
I miss this while driving,a lot of tapping at this moment(yes i know,no calling while driving),just texting :D
Now its at least 3 clicks from locked screen.

1 click on the contactwidget and the phonedialer launches would be nice. And when the call is over you return to the desktop.
Then it would be possible to have a desktop for just driving.

Maybe some sort of script and the possibility to attach an image of the contact. Or an app of some sort.
Can't do it myself though due to lacking programming skills.

I just wonder if its even possible?
Probably a noob question....:o

Yes agreed that a contact dialer would be great. I know the N900 is a internet tablet, but if you include a phone it ought to be easy to dial whilst we work in our cars. Time in the car is the best phone time ever. easy to do the call backs etc. I would pay for an app that allowed a simple tap and go... I do realize that each contact has multiple actions associated with it. but this ought to be exclusive.. tap a dial vial mobile network..... thanks

There is a very good app/widget for that functionality thanks to the effort of Fellipe Crochik. It is not tap, but double tap on contact's icon that gets you dialing it. Desktop widget can hold up to 75 contacts in 5 groups and supports portrait mode.
