True "hands free" calling????

[directorfilm]

I have been using a Samsung Omnia i910 for the last few years and loved the fact that I could make a call (using my headset "button") without ever looking at or touching my phone. But I finally decided to purchase a new phone and got a Gnxs, only to find that it really doesn't have "hands free" calling. Almost makes me want to return my new phone!!!!!!!
A) Does anyone know if Droid is going to update this and when?
B) In the meantime, I've researched several apps, but was wondering if anyone can recommend a good one?
THANKS!
PS - I went into the nearest store and the rep had a RAZR (Gingerbread) which does have hands free. Why would they not include this in ICS????????

I just tried it quickly, I hit the speaker icon in the top right corner, the said 'call Tricia mobile' and it called my wife's mobile phone. I'm not sure if this is the true hands free method you wanted.

I'm able to push the button on my blueant z9 and tell it to call whoever I want. Is this what you are wanting to do?

Thanks for the expedient answers.
Yes, if I say "call ____ mobile", a window comes up saying just that. But I then I have to touch the screen to make the call. I'm talking about using ONLY audio. So there would be some type of audio response from the phone, i.e., "Do you want to call ___ mobile?" To which I answer YES and it auto dials.
In regards to the second post, I am not using a bluetooth, just a plain headset.

Maybe it depends on which device you use with it. I actually don't have a box appear it just asks me if the number it chose is correct.
