just got my dad a droid eris for christmas. figured he's need some time getting used to it. the problem is that he always seems to make calls by accidentally hitting he contact or the call history tab. Is there any way to change these settings so the contact comes up when you hit it, rather then automatically calling that contact? I can't seem to find any settings features that allow to change this. It's not on phone settings. not on app settings. anywhere im not looking or overlooking?

When you open the "phone" on the Eris, there will be a little icon at the far right of each contact, either an index card, or a plus sign. If you touch the index card specifically, it will open the contact info for that contact, rather than just calling them, and you can dial from there if you choose to. If you touch the plus sign, it will ask if you want to add that number to your contacts list, or again, you can call the number from there. If you open your "favorites" or "contact list" via the small icon in the bottom right corner when the phone is open, it will also open those contacts, rather than calling them.
