OK Lets stop arguing on how to do what he wants. You can use the keypad and the I-drive. The i-drive is a painfully slow and requires as much driver distraction as using the keypad on the phone. I use them both depnding on the circumstances.
To use the I-drive, when in a call push down on the pod. You are given a choice of "End Call" or "KeyPad" Select Keypad.
If all I have to do is dial an extension and the phone is in my trouser pocket then I will use the I-drive, however if you have to dial a string of numbers as a password to get to voicemail, then I use the phone keypad.
Lets face it, checking your voicemail while driving is a distraction no matter how you dial. Its a risk I take.
