We also thought that many calls would be started not by starting the Call app, but rather click on the person (or select from the contact book) and then select to call him/her. Starting the Call app itself is slightly pointless.

You can just start to type on the Home view and that will start to search the contact book.

I certainly don't want to add every Tom, Dick, and Harry I need to call to my address book to make it easy to call.

Plus, in order to start typing, you have to open the soft keyboard, or, open the slider, those are extra steps that are generally not needed to make a phone call.


To me, there should have been a hardware key or soft key always present to be able to make a call.

To call someone you can do:

- Open the Phone app.
- Rotate the phone if launch on rotate is turned on.
- Press power key, tap Phone button.
- Click on a contact in your Contact book, select Call.

When you open phone through any other means other than through clicking on a contact, you have two buttons at the top... one for going to a dialing pad to call anyone you choose and a second button for heading to your contact list.

Hit the Dialing Pad button and there you go... phone buttons all there for you to type away on. It's very simple, really. No, you don't need to add everyone to your contact list first. No, you don't need the keyboard open either.
