Using Contacts
You can think of Contacts as an address book, where you store information about people
and businesses with whom you communicate. For example, you can store multiple
phone numbers, e-mail and street addresses, Web pages, as well as other information
that relates to the contact, such as a birthday or anniversary date.
and businesses with whom you communicate. For example, you can store multiple
phone numbers, e-mail and street addresses, Web pages, as well as other information
that relates to the contact, such as a birthday or anniversary date.
You can specify a special ring tone for the Smartphone to use when a contact calls. You
can also assign a contact to a category, such as business or personal, so you can filter
the contact list to view contacts in a category. You can use Contacts to dial phone
numbers and compose e-mail and text messages directly from a contact card. The
contacts you create are saved in your Smartphone, but you can copy them to your SIM
card and copy contacts on your SIM card to your phone. You can synchronize contact
cards with your desktop computer or beam contact cards to another device.

has no function. Please do not select it.
The Contact List
The contact list displays the names of your contacts alphabetically. From this list, you
can create new contact cards with address, phone, and e-mail information. You can also
easily call a contact directly from the list, open a contact card to view and edit its
information, or delete a contact card. When you synchronize with your desktop
computer, your contact information is updated to reflect any changes on both your
Smartphone and your desktop computer.
