well you might be able to use orneta scissors but honestly typing it is probably the easiest

didnt think typing something was cumbersome

maybe my question didnt make sense...but lets say you want to text your friend a number from your contacts that he/she doesnt have...how do you insert that number in a text message to your friend

dafoxs · 06-30-2008, 04:47 PM

why can't you just right it down and type it in the text. We are not understanding the problem you are having.

yes writing it down and typing it in is an option...but other phones do have the option to insert a contacts information in the body of a text...so i was just wondering if our phone has the ability...thats all
