I'd still like to know what happens when I have to incoming calls: 1 via cellular, 1 via SIP at the same time (ie from Google Voice forward).

This End Call button looks dangerously near to the Speaker button...

hope this helps.

Hmm pycage's point about it being close is alarming. Though given that it's resistive, depending on sensitivity hopefully an ear wouldn't hang it up. I imagine the iPhone with its capacitative screen doesn't have that problem.
As for daperl's comment, I agree you should be able to answer the phone and have it stay in that process window. No need to switch over to the phone menu (but still have it open as a background task).
As for the game, yeah I think there should be an option for application pausing (not OS level because then you just have an iPhone like result). But for things like Bounce to have it pause on loss of screen focus. Obviously for multiplayer games we couldn't do that or it would be abused.
But then again a background telephone process wouldn't be to bad since the game would remain focused.

That's what I meant. If the iPhone doesn't have the problem of shutting off when it senses an electrical circuit (from your ear) then I can't imagine it being an issue for the n900 which requires pressure on its resistive touch screen. Not unless you slam it against your ear. Good news on the proximity detector though (what does it detect? o.O)

It's basically a miniaturized version of the IR beams they have on some electronic keyboards and synthesizers.
