G'Day,

I have three issues with the i-mate and that is the ability to:

1. dial a selected telephone number from received text (SMS) messages or email messages;

2. save the selected telephone number from received text (SMS) messages or email messages into contacts;

I transferred my Telstra message service from MessageBank to Memo so that I did not need to write the name and number before calling. Memo sends the message via text (SMS) message which enabled to return telephone calls directly from text (SMS) message. On the i-mate, I can not select the telephone number to return calls from text (SMS) messages.

3. cut and paste from web pages or text messages.

For example cut name, telephone, address, email address and company name from emails or text (SMS) messages and paste into contacts.

I know that the Treo 600 has this ability and I'm hoping that the i-mate can perform these functions also. If not, I might have to swap to the Treo 600!

It would be greatly appreciated for any assistance to solve these issues.

Thank you.

Marcus

I can cut and paste from other areas but not from web pages, emails or text (SMS) messages.

If I receive a text (SMS) message, email or web page with a telephone number in the message, I must write it down, open the phone and type in the telephone number. After the call I can then transfer to contacts.

How do you cut from web pages, emails or text (SMS) messages and paste to phone or contacts or calender?

Thank you for your prompt assistance.
