If this is the case, with ~40MB of internal memory, it doesn't make sense to
have fixed memory partitioning. The same should apply to the number of SMSs
one can store. The situation is worse with DECT landline phones. I bought 3
Philips Onis handsets about 5 yrs ago - they have 40 number/name slots where
most only had 20. I had a look recently & many models /still/ only have 20!
The K700i should also not be liming the number of voice labels or the number
of entries in the Accept Calls list etc. At least SE phones can store
multiple numbers under one name unlike (most/all?) Motorola handsets.

Regards

Does the K700i sync the memo section from outlook contacts? Or only the
phone number fields?
