where's direct dial on droid 2?

[dro-idiot]

direct dial, not speed dial. meaning, icon on the desktop of contact, one press and it calls said contact.

[gotta have that funk]

Wow. This is almost as lame as Google screwing up the silent mode in Froyo. Kinda makes you scratch your head and wonder why they took it out in the first place.

It's moto's decision. Just another reason it'd be nice to drop custom -- even vanilla -- ROMs on these phones. We installed Any Cut and that works perfectly. OCCW, as a widget, can't be moved into the launcher dock.

It's a fine workaround but it cost my client's $60 of my time, so thanks motorola! </sarcasm> This is the last time I buy or recommend an android phone with a locked bootloader.
