    The 4 shortcut keys by the d pad have thei own shortcuts when you hold them down.
    Home key you mentioned above.
    Hold down email key will start a new message
    Hold down calendar key and you can type in a new appointment
    Hold down the contact key and that will add a new contact.

    In current setting of contact list, i just see the name of the contact. Is there a setting available where I see the contact and the no: of the contact in the same view. Istead of pressing the selected contact again and then viewing the no:, is there a way to see the name and number in the single view. Pls help!!
    Thanks

    Thanks.
    The business card reader which is bundled with the phone does not work well. I tried Abbyy Card reader which is excellent but it is not free.
