Also, as an experiment, are you storing numbers in the +(country)(area)(number) format?

Just to confirm, the area code is without the 0 (zero). You'll should have numbers like +64 21 XYZ WYZ or +64 4 462 WXYZ.

Hey guys,

Nah its not a bug ... more the fact you will have doubled up contacts in your address book

IE two contacts with the same number

just go into outlook, edit out the mobile numbers and re snyc with the phone .. or just manually edit them in your 6600

I thought I was going mental too until I click :)
