   Indeed.   
      
   With my current Android phone, which is one of those keypadless   
   wonders, it took me two weeks to discover how to answer it when it   
   rang.   
      
   And even after discovering that, when I pick it up or take it out of   
   my pocket when it's ringing, I often touch something that makes the   
   "ringing" screen disappear, and by the time I find how to get it back   
   it has stopped ringing.   
      
      
   But such discussions probably belong in com.mobile.android
