| I think its in the wm6 rom and you may be sol unless you hack it out of the rom. You might check on xda developers.com and see if they have a thread on that subject. |

| I had the same problem and actually just went through one by one and deleted the SIM contacts so I would only have one of each because I am OCD and can't stand looking at two of them. If I ever change phones, there is that option to save all contacts back to the SIM. |

| Registry Hacking is a scary deal, can brick a phone if you are not really familiar with it. There are a few free registry editors out there, I use TRE. Here is a thread that goes into a bunch of detail on registry hacks for the 750, I recommend reading it before you try anything... http://discussion.treocentral.com/sh...registry+hacks |

| i find that most of their solutions are for the 700w, also not really sure which reg hack would work on the 750, i tried one, and it did not install it, i guess its not competible, if you know one that for sure works on the 750 it will be great////// also tried to find TRE, can not find it anywhere... Thanks again.... |

| Most of the hacks haven't changed. I made my scroll bars smaller and hid my sim contacts from that thread. Here is the link to TRE: http://www2r.biglobe.ne.jp/~tascal/d...etpc/index.htm |

| Ok, thanks, done, it....it works great when you select CONTACT and then you do not see any of the SIM contact, just your phone, which is great....but for some reason, if I type a letter from the TODAY screen, it goes to contact and there you see everything again..... Anything I missed....? |
