Contacts has three ways to search: - By jumping through letters with the thumb. - By typing lettings on the keyboard to filter. - By pressing the search key to invoke the search UI and show the filter results there.
These are all standard parts of the platform, and ideally would be implemented by any list view with a significant amount of data.
