In my experience with this phone, I would NOT trust it for ANY mission critical applications. Personal and light business use is fine. However, if I had a need for emergency contact I would keep a simple, conventional "dumb" phone. Smart phones are great but still seem a bit to new to fully trust imho.

Personally, I am worried about the day I face an emergency and have to dial 911. Will my phone get stuck drawing the keypad? Will it be frozen and I have to softreset (thus waiting 2 minutes?)? Like I said, I've already started off loading mission critical stuff to other device. I DO use my phone as my "backup" alarm. IE my main alarm clock is set for one time, and this one set for 5 minutes later but even then, I am Leary of it working properly.

Cautions aside, I really DO love this phone!
