One of my friends kids (about 5) went through a phase where she was fascinated with calling 911. The iPod Touch became the way to handle this, you could hand her the iPod and know she couldn't dial out. Sure an iPad could work, but this girl had siblings and the parents didn't want to have to buy everybody an ipad.
You can't uninstall the dialer. As far as I know you can't even lock the dialer down.
> Plus, it's arguably worth risking accidental 911 calls to allow necessary ones
