Contacts
The Contacts menu (
Menu 8
) is used to manage your contact list. You can
store names and phone numbers in both your SIM card and your phone’s
memory, which are physically separate but both used to create the contact
list. You can also create contact groups and assign speed dial numbers to
your numeric keypad.
Note:
When you change phones, numbers stored in your SIM card memory are automatically
available with the new phone, whereas numbers stored in the phone’s memory must be re-
entered or transferred using a data kit accessory. However, contacts stored on the phone may
include additional details that can not be stored on the SIM card.
