Section 8: Understanding Your Address Book

This section allows you to manage your daily contacts by storing
their name and number in your Address Book. Address Book
entries can be sorted by name, entry, or group.
Note: When storing an Address Book entry into your SIM card, note that only
the Name, Address, Group, and slot location are initially offered as
fields. Although you may add additional fields to a SIM entry; if you
move that same SIM card to another model phone, it is possible that
only the basic information will be transferred.
