Guest simonastro Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 easy dial does it exist? did I just make it up? does it lurk in the guise of a free program I haven't yet found? gah biggest gripe with the whole dialler thing is exampled as follows call sister. I have intellidialler installed but as have numerous contacts with similar names it takes 5 keypresses to get dialling. sister not home try her mobile. takes another 5 keypresses ! surely there must be an easier way! oh and while I'm at it - I had individual ringtones on my E200 why can't I have them on my M2000? boo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted March 27, 2005 Report Share Posted March 27, 2005 You simply must get Windows Voice Command. Press one button and say (eg.) "Call Kylie Minogue on mobile" then "Correct" and then all you have to do is reply, "Yes dahling, it's Disco Stu. I'll be round in 10. Ciao !" I've never found a way to view my Contacts list that is useful for all numbers so this is essential for me. She (the software, not Kylie) does sometimes get confused in the pub, what with all the background noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest simonastro Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 fiscal incapacitation aside, I agree entirely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TigerNet Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 ...or if you are not dating Kylie, you could get a software called MobiDial...this allows you 36 (I think) speed dials on 4 screens...I have a screen for Family, one for mates, one for sport (coaching contacts) and one for misc...this will also allow you to send SMS to their mobiles by tapping and holding the persons button...

EASY ! <shrugs> ..works a treat too ! ps. if anyone does have kylie's number, care to forward it to me ? ;) Edited June 12, 2005 by justsomeone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest simonastro Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 yes it is more direct but needs two hands - the stylus for scrolling etc I have no problem using the stylus for diary etc but using the phone should be a one handed operation in my book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blakey Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I dunno how much help this is, but the ETEN m500 comes with its own software in ROM: You press the Contacts button on the front of the phone (1) and it pops up a screen with the ten most common numbers you phone. Press the relevant button and you're calling it (2). For me this means I very rarely need to do more than 2 presses to dial who I want as I only phone less than 10 people regularly. ETEN also includes Voice Command as part of its ROM if you prefer to talk to the phone instead. Blakey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Disco Stu Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I quite like PhonePlus! which sounds identical to Mobidial (above) and costs $16.49 from PocketGear.The stylus still has to come out for writing the text though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest psionandy Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 The fonix software works great for me.. as long as i'm at home in the quiet... I just can't get it to work outside... 'No... NO NO Goodbye' Might give voice command a go and see if it's any better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JamesBond007 Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 If you want a better dialing solution with less touches you should consider D9. It's a freeware solution that does T9 predictive text for all your contacts similar to the smartphones dialing solution but uses the screen instead of hard buttons.
