Hello all,

I was just pondering the other day about what I'd like to have in my next phone and the most important things for me (after, of course, the phone element) would be a calendar and an address book in which you can record not only phone numbers and e-mail addresses but also physical (street) addresses.
Of course GPRS would also be nice, but these other two would be my main requirements. So my question is, does anybody know a good phone that offers these two functions? I can't really seem to find one myself. The calendar is easy to find, the address book is harder.

Thanks in advance,
Llhorian

Yep, p800 has all that, as well as 7650. I think most Nokia's have the full address book and calendar, at least 7110 had it.

Are there also less high-end phones that have this? I mean the P800 is cool and all, but I don't really need a smartphone and it is rather expensive
Just curious, I mean if it's not there in middle-end or lower-end phones then tough luck for me

The old one, R380 can fit your needs already if you dont want GPRS. But you'd better to have a GPRS enabled phone now. This message was posted from a R520

FYI, the p800 ain't a smartphone. at least in micro$oft's vocabulary, it ain't.

Siemens S55...
*Feeling like a broken record here, but it IS a nice little bugger, really!*
Even the guy who bought my t68i calls it the t68i½

I've had my T68i since Christmas..

One of the first things I did was to make the Phone Book/Contact manager more like a PIM by adding my contacts physical address.

I did this buy putting all of my contact info (including street addresses) in MS outlook.

Then using SE XTNDConnect for the T68i.

Show all the fields on your Phone Book… Click. “phone Book”, “options”, “contact info” then check all the fields

When in XTND click on “settings”, then “mapping”, “contacts” and “mapping” again.
Keep all the field mapped the same, but change these.

For “company” map to two fields in Outlook., “home address city” and “home address state” fields in Outlook.

For “title” filed map to “home address street” field in Outlook

For “other phone” map to, “home address postal code” field in Outlook.

With all of your contact info in Outlook. I just deleted all my contacts in my phone then did a fresh sync from Outlook. Works like a charm and when viewing contacts all the info displays well.

This really works well for me. Now I have all my contacts street addresses when away from home


Cheers, Roger

@kalo93406
That is a really nice -workaround-
Should really be that way per default though.

Another option with a phone like the T610 is to develop a adressbook in Java
