Hi,
It's true, it's a pretty nifty app. Takes a bit of getting used to when you
type a phone number and it pops up - can you use the call key to start the
call even though T0Nav has opened?
Best,
H.

Hi Peter.
The app doesn't just help you find things, stop being such a cynic *smile*,
and check out T9Nav. It fully index searches your entire phone, so you can
quickly get to contacts, menu functions, calendar appointments, music
tracks, web bookmarks, in fact anything that can be accessed directly or
indirectly.
All the best, Ibrahim.
