alltel 700p when I try to dial with the keypad...

[proskier]

When I try to dial with the keyboard, the phone starts to search contacts by letter rather than just let me enter the phone number. Is there a way to set the phone to default to entering numbers when at the phone screen?

I have found I have to press the button that toggles between the letters and numbers to dial a number. This is a pain, I just switched from a 650 and when I started to dial a number it would try to search, but when I got past 3 or 4 numbers it would figure out I was trying to enter a number not search contacts.

any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
