one more glitch?
I have had the same problems with updating contacts and erasure of call logs as many of you have had, but I have an additional quirk whereby if a person who is entered in my call log calls me from any other than the first number listed, his name is not displayed. When I call that same person on a secondary number, the 6682 recognizes him by name however.
I've played around with defaults, etc., and nothing helps. I might also note that when my prior SIM was copied to my current one, previously consolidated numbers were seperated into different named entrees, i.e. Jim, Jim1 etc. Has anyone else encountered anything similar? Is there a fix at hand?

Numbers are never consolidated on any sim card. They are consolidated on the phone memory, and when you have multiple numbers for one name, and you copy them to the sim card, they will show up as jim, jim1, jim2, etc..

I haven't had that problem, but I know of at least one number in my contacts that does not display the name. It's number is entered into Outlook the same way as the other numbers. I suspect an Outlook/sync issue, but I haven't debugged it yet. The number is my Mom's, so I recognize the caller id without needing the name. ;-)

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Icy, if what you say is true, and I don't disbelieve you, do I have to enter all my contact info to the SIM card to get the phone to recognize it? in other words, why when I make outgoing calls does the phone properly label contacts by name, but not so for incoming calls? Is there a way I can make sure my phone is obsrving my phone memory contact list and not using the SIM? It is annoying to have to scroll through my contact list as it reads Jim, Jim1, Jim2 etc. I'd rather have just one "Jim" and be able to open all numbers when searching for contact info instead of guessing which "jim" is mobiile, home, office, etc.

No don't enter it on the sim. It is set to store all your contacts to phone memory and will do so unless you change it. You can put many numbers under one name on the phone memory.
