Hi Carol,

Another problem with it though is that it only dials the default number.  So
if I have Carol Pearson for example, and I have a Home, Work and Mobile
number, I call out Carol, and I will only get the default number dialled.
It really is not worth it, and a bit of an afterthought on Nokia's part I
think.

All the best

Steve

Yes, and if you use the mobile in this way, it does automatically dial once 
the number has come up, unless you stop it quickly enough.

There may be an option for just the number to show, but I haven't looked 
into that one.
