I'm new to the T610. Upgraded from the T68. I have about 45 Contacts beginning with the letter 'M'.
I used to be able to hold the joystick right to get a convenient 'Find Contact' screen. I would type in 'mik' and get to 'Mike'
Is there a way to get this screen on the T610? I probably use this function the most...
I saw this review and it shows a picture of the screen:

Does anybody know how to get to the 'Find' screen?

Go to my shortcuts and edit it so that the find contact option is first on the list. Now when you pres left you'll get this in stead of the create a new message option. I hope this helps to solve your problem.

Tried it.

It's the same as moving the Joystick down.

It gives me the top of the Phonebook List.

I want to be able to type in several letters and then search, like the T68.

Same thing happens: It goes to the Phonebook List starting with 'A'.

The T68 had a way to enter the firs few letters of a name:
(Typing 'Mik' would get me past the 30 or so "M" names I have and get me directly to the "Mikes")

Maybe SE left this option out. Too bad, because I used it constantly...

Very strange.. I have a T610 with R3C002. My first shortcut is Call Contact. When I move the joystick to the left, I get a screen with Call Contact as the title, and a prompt for "find". I can then type any characters i want.. for instance, typing Ri gets me al the contacts starting with Ri..

I must have an earlier version. Does R1S001 sound right?
I got this from the SW Info screen...

I can type the first, but I'm trying to type a couple. It takes for ever for me to scroll thru my "M"s

Hmm yeah I see what you mean, when you do the joystick shortcut you can only enter the first letter, but if you choose call contact from the menu you can type more.
