My problems.

Sound like there could be some helpful hints here
I am a looooooong time blackberry user and have been on verizon forever so I was so excited and was at the store buying the droid the first day it came out. Have had some email sending issues I am working through. I am confident I will get my mail to send consistently very soon
What causes me the most frustration is not what i think to be a bug but a flawed design which is causing horrific user errors. Some days I just want to use this phone I love so much as a speed bump. (Same with my hubby some days )
Anyways, here is where i am hoping a few of you can maybe give me some suggestions or guidance.
1. When I am on a long speaker phone call I often can not end the call. The phone just wont react to anything I do, even if I hit the power button. I really hoped my days of pulling the battery out of my blackberry 10 times a day to reset were over.
2. When I am on a call up to my face. Here is where the real fun begins. I am busy multitasker, Just cant sit on the phone, chat and do nothing else. Because of this my phone moves around alot sometime I hold it with my shoulder and move to my hand and then back again over and over. I randomly mute or throw people on speaker ALL the time. At least I can fix these if the dial pad screen is showing, but sometimes the buttons do not react. I have to end the call and start again. The worst thing I have started doing all the time is conferencing/merging the call I am on with my voice mail. Once this occurs I have no idea how to successfully get out of it. I either drop the call or end up merging the two so my friend/client when on for business gets to listen to my voice mail message play in the background. . Time to end the call again. What a great impression this makes.
Sorry to ramble, just wanted to provide all the details. Any suggestions or help out there. I sure would appreciate it. I have to get this under control before publishing this number as my primary business number later this spring.

1. I don't personally know the solution but I did find a thread where people were having similar problems http://www.droidforums.net/forum/htc-droid-eris/8289-frozen-lock-screen.htmlI am a looooooong time blackberry user and have been on verizon forever so I was so excited and was at the store buying the droid the first day it came out.

I have been having the same issues while talking on my phone. The screen turns on I press buttons and the person on the other end can't hear me?? Its frustrating when talking I'm tempted to get a bluetooth headset or something so I can call without having to deal with pushing buttons on the screen. But I hate those things.... maybe there will be 2.1???
