For the reasons Bubbatex stated, I didn't find it any more handy than scrolling the first screen. Not to say it is a bad program, or that it didn't work; it did! Just not something that I really need!

Maybe many people who use speed dial can remember 99 speed dial numbers by heart, but I use 2 through 9 regularly and that's about it. Actually, I am probably not a good target for this feature - I have never used speed dial beyond the 2-9 keys b/c I don't call 20-30-40-50 people enough to memorize that many speed dial numbers. I can type 2-3 letters of their name and get it almost as fast - and I don't have to further clutter this old mind of mine!
