One feature I sorely wish that the Touch had is the ability to lock the screen from touch input as soon as a call is placed or answered, like the iPhone does. I am hearing impaired and I have to really get the phone close to my ear but unfortunately I've had issues with applets turning on and what not because of my face pressing the screen. Sure, I can lock the screen manually with the long push of the call end button, but that's a little bit of a hassle.

Does anyone know of an appy that can do this? Or at least stear me toward someone who may be in the midst of developing such an appy?
When I use the phone on my Touch and Mogul, I turn the both around (the screen facing out).
Since the speaker is on the back of both and the mic is on the bottom, I have the back/speaker by my ear. This also helped in hearing as the sound is directed toward my ear. This also helped in not touching the screen with my face/ear. Using it this way only made sense to me. Trying using your Touch this way.

edit: I do have it on speakerphone as it is louder. When I hold it, my hand/palm does not touch the screen. I hold the edge with my finger tips and thumb and my hand is in a cup shape. My hand doesn't touch the screen at all.
