On my old phone (kyocera) I could start typing from the home screen the letters of a name... For example, to dial Chris, I would type 24747 After typing 2, it would show all names starting with abc, then after typing 4 it would show all names starting with the combination of abc and def and as you kept going it would narrow down to the name you wanted. It was so convient... Any type of feature like this in the motorola phonebooks? I have a v220 and love it, except I have noticed the phonebook is a bit weak and unintuitive (the number 1 feature on a phone).
I don't think the v220 has that feature(or any other motorola feature i could think of). But it sounds like a pretty convenient feature; Motorola should look into adding it to their future models.
