On the iPhone OS, contacts grouped into the "Favorites" section of the phone application can be dialed with a single touch to the listed name, but for all other contacts in the "All Contacts" section, this is a two-step process. The first tap on the name instead opens the details page for that contact, and the desired phone number in that contact's details page must then be selected by a second tap.
Out of habit, I find that I sometimes tap a name in the two-step "All Contacts" section, and hold it to my ear immediately, only to discover that the phone isn't dialing. (I then have to lower the phone to glance at the screen, select the phone number, and raise the phone back to my ear.)
What should happen is that if this contact has only one associated phone number, the iPhone should automatically dial that number once the phone is held to your ear, using its accelerometer and ambient sensors. That way, selecting a name and bringing the phone to your ear results in the same device reaction regardless of from which of these two sections the dial originated (again, for single-number contacts only).
