Hi peeps, im need of help with my E66. I'm trying to set the phonebook/contacts directory to access SIM only whenever i hit on the shortcut. From the Help option under contacts, it says that i' able to set which directory i want my contacts to be read from. But sadly, within the settting option, there is only "Name display" and nothing else. How can i go around resolving this issue?
Unfortunately, as far as I know, you can't set the default phonebook to SIM CARD contacts. You need to copy them out into your phone memory as stated somewhere in the manual. Perhaps someone here has an alternative way of doing it.

Another thing,
I was a SE user previously. I am kind of unsure if the phonebook is suppose to act the way it is acting now.
Whenever i tried searching for a name under my contacts, it would not reference the 1st alphabet of the contact.
Eg:
Albert
Rammie
King
when i enter 'a' <-- its always lowercase ( am i able to change it /would it influence how it would find the contacts if the names were written in uppercase)
it would display Albert and Rammie at the same time, is this normal
ps: Painful but rewarding journey with the E66.
Mine is the same too. My understanding is that the OS utilise a smart search system of which I still don't understand the criteria of searching included. As for your case, I believe Rammie turned up cos the alphabet "a" is found in the name. You can also search by initials, e.g in order to search for Rony Tan, you just need to key in "rt" in the search field. I was a SE user previously too, and I found the searching on contacts is a lot more convenient on the e66
