I seem to have seen or heard before that an icon can be created on Iphone's home screen where the icon represent one of your contact. So in a way, instead of going to the favorites, just simply tap the icon of one of your contact on the home screen and it will automatically dial that contact's number. It may be an application that need to be installed in the Iphone from Apps store but I'm not sure. So anybody has idea?

There is a web app that does what you are describing. I used to use it but I haven't used it in quite a while. I can't remember what it is called either. I know it exists though, so good luck finding it. Maybe someone else on here knows more about it than me.

I found a couple of the apps you were talking about but it still doesn't do what I was hoping for. You still have to go to the apps to go to the contacts but instead of just the name of contacts, you will see a bunch of icons with your contacts pictures on it that you can tap and call which is pretty cool but then you still have to go to one step further before getting to the contacts you want. I have yet to find something that will enable us to put just one contact as an icon directly to the home screen:( I hope it will be available soon.
