Dialling numbers from Contacts when using a callback service

[pdevillers]

I've got a long distance calling plan where I call a number and get a busy signal. The service then immediately calls me back, and when I answer, I'm presented with a dial-tone at which point I can call any number I want, with really cheap rates, while only getting dinged for local incoming minutes on my iPhone.

The problem with this is that I can't find a way to access and "dial" numbers from my Contacts when I'm presented with the dial-tone. I essentially have to have the number memorized or written down beforehand.

Is this possible? Maybe some other app that I can launch after answering the call which will access numbers in Contacts and generate keypress tones?

Thanks

Hmmm... Android support multi-tasking. When presented with dial-tone, can you tap the Home button and then open the Contacts app to look for your number. Then tap and hold Home button and you choose to go back to the previous dial-tone screen to paste the number in ?

I tried to do that, and I also tried to copy the number in the clipboard in order to paste but there is no way to paste the number when I am on the other call.
