Annoying, how do I call a contact from the SMS screen?

[urraca]

So this is quite annoying, is there no way to call a contact from the SMS screen? Sometimes I recieve a text from someone along the lines of "call me", so one would think I could just touch a button and call them. But no, I have to then go to my contact list, scroll to find them then call. Is there something I'm missing? Also, anyway to do texting in landscape view?

Scroll up to the top of the message and press call

Duhhhhh.

Now wonder why I just now had a problem, the particular text conversation with this contact is probably 10 pages long, and the top was so far. Guess it's time to clear out the convo.

Thanks.

LOL, it may have been easier to make a call from the contact app than to scroll 10 pages.

Double tap the very top bar (where the carrier/network name etc) is - it will scroll to the top... this works in any app.
