Local Contact Directory

The phone maintains a local contact directory. The directory can be downloaded from the boot server and edited locally (if configured in that way). Contact information from previous calls may be easily added to the directory for convenient future access.

The directory is the central database for several other features including speed-dial, distinctive incoming call treatment, presence, and instant messaging.
