Efficient Note-Taking in Address Book?
I know that the BB and the Palm are different animals, but I want to see if I can mimic one function from my old Palm m500 when using the BB (8330). I was never a Treo user.
My address book on the Palm is loaded with notes I have made during phone calls with contacts. This makes searching very easy. For example, let's say Vicious Lawyer (not his real name) tells me about 2 contacts he knows in San Francisco. I write these down in the Notes field of the address book entry for Vicious Lawyer. Later, I can't recall the 2 contact names but I just pull up his address book entry and there are the 2 contacts.
Very easy to do the above on the Palm. Very difficult on the Blackberry, since the only field for Notes entry in an address is the very bottom of a long scrolldown address screen. Is there any way to achieve this functionality quickly and easily on the Blackberry, with or without 3rd party software? I am quite willing to pay for stable 3rd party software that gives me this function. If the 3rd party software tackles the problem a different way, that's fine too.
Many thanks for your input.
