I know there is a category section in contacts, but it is not useful.  Why,
because I want to list my contacts like they are listed in the yellow
pages..i.e... attorney, plumber, hvac, judge, etc...

Why, for search purposes, I could just press one of the buttons like "l" for
lawyer.  I don't always remember names and companies, but I do know the
category.  Also, when I down load to my pocket pc, it is easier to enter the
name as lawyer and it brings up all the lawyers in my pc.  If I have to go to
category first it is too cumbersome.

It's more user friendly.
