Is there a way to use the slide out keyboard to answer an incoming call on the stratsophere? My

[Dennis Melamed]

I'd like to do that rather than hit the phone icon.

From p. 114 of the Stratosphere I manual (the Strat II might be different):
From the Home screen, press the Menu Key, then touch Settings ➔ Call settings ➔ Answering mode. There are several checkboxes there, including: Slide open: When enabled, sliding the phone open automatically answers the phone, in speakerphone mode.

The manual can be found and downloaded at http://cache.vzw.com/multimedia/mim/stratosphere/stratosphere.pdf.

Why?? I think it would be nearly impossible to talk on the phone with the keyboard out.
