Mountain Haddock, Is it actually that critical that you need to answer your phone half way down a black?
Really

[quote="paulio"]The best thing you can do, is to cut the end of a finger of a normal glove.
Make sure your finger is not in the glove when you do.

:S, I'm surprised nobody here knew this, rub some thermal grease thinly on the fingertip of the glove and It'll work as though you don't have any on.

+1 for the nose. I have been using my nose on an Android while walking the dog. Also use my nose on the ipod touch. Yes, I have a big nose. Yes, I do realise that the second sentence sounds odd.

There was something on a TV show a while ago where they made a "phone glove".
They took a blutooth headset, stripped it down and sewed the bits into a glove. They put the speaker into the end of the thumb and the mic' into the tip of the little finger, the answer button in the palm and the rest of the gubbins in the cuff. Just needed a few wires extending.
Result was they answered by pressing the palm then talked using the "I'll phone you" mime.

These guys make special STICKERS that go on the tip of your glove index finger.
Thus you can then operate your iPhone with your gloves on! I saw them at the Snow show at Earl's Court.

if any one is that desparate to use their iPhone then cut off a finger or other appendage and use that.

Or you can sew conductive thread into the fingertips of your gloves. May be a tad tricky to get right with really thick skiing gloves. And it may mean the gloves are less waterproof.
Thread available from Amazon
And for those worried about skiing with iPhones... I skied with the original for two seasons and the 4 for one season. Always kept it in the cargo pocket of my ski pants. Never had any problems with it operating in low temps or the battery going flat.

..and for people worried about losing them - buy a case and attach it to a lanyard, then attach the lanyard to the zip on whichever pocket you are keeping the phone. No danger of dropping it off a lift then. That's what I've done!
