Phone Assistant is another BlackBerry tool which performs a task that can greatly speed up your device usage. Well priced as well.. “NEW Phone Assistant v1.4.2 now enables you to merge the Phone number to an existing contact and not just adding a new contact, by allowing you to choose the contact from the address book right from the alert.
Phone Assistant enables you to quickly add new contacts & merge with existing contacts on the go. Once the conversation is ended, you will be prompted to add as new contacts only if the phone number does not exist in the address book – most common feature found in Windows Mobile devices for example but missing for BlackBerry devices. In addition, Phone Assistant will also enable you to quickly merge the new number with your existing contacts by allowing you to choose from your address book.
The existing functionality in the BlackBerry devices to add new phone number to the address book from the call log in the Phone application only adds to the default “Work” category and in case you want to change the category, the only way to go about it is to copy/paste. Phone Assistant will enable you choose your desired category (Work, Home, Mobile) and also allows you to add/merge new phone numbers as new or existing contacts in a quick and efficient way immediately without having to remember to add your important contacts later.”
