anyone found a way to lock the phone from hitting buttons. I know there is a keypad lock but it's a lot of work to hold the Home key select keypad lock, then when unlocking you must press *

On my 700w I set it so I can press the center of the 5 way nav to unlock...anyone found a good way?

sometimes it locks the keys some times it brings me to the phone dialer?

have this issue yourself?

also you can just press spacebar I believe to get the same effect.
