Hi,

I can dial 911 1 handed on an iPhone.  Actually, most of the time while 
navigating, I'm only using 1 hand.  That being said, there is no question in my 
mind that you can dial 911 faster on a phone with a physical number pad than a 
smart phone that doesn't have one.  Just do to the fact you have to first open 
a menu, and possibly select the keypad or favorites tab depending on what tab 
you were last in if using an iPhone.
