Others may feel differently, but you may want to switch to using
Apple's Mail and Address Book programs (these are free, they come with
the OS).
You can convert your address - contact list to use in Address Book (and
the names are straight up alphabetically listed!!!!!!!!).
Using Mail gives you some pretty darn good spam filtering.
Many other programs are starting to make use of Address book listing
(for example, clicking on a listing's web-site address will open it in
a browser, there are apps that will integrate birthday info into your
Calendar, though I don't have a bluetooth phone to try this out on ,
there is an app that will dial the phone numbers that you have in there.
