I've done this a few times myself. The operator sensed my confusion and asked whether I was talking on a Blackberry. When I confirmed her suspicions, she suggested I put the phone into standby mode when I pocketed it so I couldn't accidentally emergency dial. She then gave me step by step instructions for locking and putting the phone into standby. Clearly, not an uncommon occurrence.
