Another way to key in Phone Numbers

K6YXH · 03-08-2005, 10:06 PM

I was demonstrating my 2005 Nav system and noticed that the database has the phone number of the POIs - everyone was impressed. Okay, so I'm the last to discover this feature. :mrgreen:

So then I show off how I can locate her house and put her name on my map, touch the map and it displays her name and address. Hooray! And then I notice there's a place to key in her phone number. I key it in and then we do the whole thing: locate her home, touch the location, display the information, and... call the number! Hooray! A new way to store and retrieve phone numbers! :clap:

Okay, not as easy and intuitive as putting them in the Address Book, but a lot more direct, and you don't have to have a BT phone that transfers Address Books. And more direct than trying to get the numbers into the 1-touch lists.

Am I the last one to find this feature?

No, but not the first either - it is a handy feature :-)
