Here's why I use TakePhone on my 680: - I used it on my 600 and 650 and got used to it :-) - Its search-by-name is more flexible than the built in phone/contacts app - I think the dial-by-capture that TakePhone and TkPhOS5Hack is not supported by the built-in app - TakePhone supports fancy dial strings in the built-in contacts database (with pauses, extensions, etc.), while the built-in only supports them in favorites but not through the contacts database. I suppose some of these might be better with the newer built-in app, but as I said, I'm used to takephone, so I haven't spent a lot of time with the built in. Sam
