Accidental Dialing: is it an epidemic?

Hi Warriors,

What's your opinion on accidental dialing?

Did you ever make an accidental call with your smartphone?

This can easily happen when you forget to lock your screen.
Those screens are highly sensitive too ...
An unintentional slip of a finger is enough to wake up your friends in the middle of the night.

I have developed a solution for this ...

It's a mobile application, but it's currently only available for Windows Mobile devices like HTC HD2, etc ...
(more platforms will be added soon)

Anyone here interested to give it a free test drive?

Please PM me. I think you'll be impressed!

Warm regards,
Stefan

    Is an "auto-lock" feature not standard on most phones now? Mine has it, and you can vary the time between when the screen is last touched and when it locks to suit yourself.

      Hi Thomas,

      Thank you for your reply.

      Yes, I think the auto-lock feature is standard on most smart phones ... but that doesn't mean that the phone is always locked. A lot of things can happen during 30 seconds.

      And like I said, when you browse the contents of your phone (your call history for example), it's far too easy to call someone by accident.

      Those screens are highly sensitive and all it takes is a slip of your finger.

      Most people that I know have had this problem.
      If you'r interested, here's a good article about what can happen:

      If anyone here is interested in testing my application (windows phones only like the HTC HD2, etc ...) please PM me

      No One?
      Anyone here who owns a Windows Mobile touch screen device like the HTC HD2?
