Hi Barbara
When I've tried it on my N91, the Nokia voice I think it is comes back with the
person's name, and a colleague of mine told me the name of the person and
their number comes up on the screen. I've just found it a bit hit or miss
whether it dials though. Has anyone else used this feature? It isn't my
native method for accessing contacts, but was thinking of a method that might
be suitable to help Tony with his query.

It works even better with some Bluettoth headsets and the good thing about that
is you don't even have to record the name into the phone, so no need to speak
exactly the same each time...Who does that?
