Of course, I've NEVER done this. I learned only recently that when entering
phone numbers manually in my Moto StarTac 7868 I should include the area
code to enable the Verizon cell system to dial no matter where I am in the
U.S.
Since this is a Mac-oriented mailing list, my question is "what Mac PIM
software properly handles the entry and display of telephone numbers
containing all the digits? Palm Desktop? Entourage? Address Book? Personal
and/or Group Organizer? Now Contact? Any others?"
Thanks so much.
