I convert the single entry 'John Doe / Mobile Phone / > Home Phone' into something like the following entries 'Doe J/Mobile > Phone' 'Doe J/Home Phone'. Well, I prefer to not use the phone at all and move the contacts from SIM- to-phones instead from phone-to-files. Every manufacturer seems to be happy with their own applications and I finally get installed 3 or 4 "phone suite tools" on my windows machine (as there are no linux app suite, of course) just to manage the contacts. And those "phone suites" are bloated apps that occupy each of them ~100 MiB of (wasted) space... I would like to see in a near future some standard tools written in java compatible with all phone brands and models in order to manage them :-} >> http://www.janerob.com/rob/e72-linux/e72-sync/ > > Yes this is the link I sent.
