Your Sprint PCS Phone The Basics | Sanyo VL-2300 specification

Speed Dialing lets you call a phone number stored in your Contacts directory using one touch dialing (page 43).

The Contacts directory (page 111) can store up to 500 numbers and 300 email and Web addresses in 300 entries (entries can store up to seven numbers each). A separate Sprint PCS Ready Link Contacts List (page 163) provides easy access to up to 200 personal contacts and 200 company-provided contacts.

Sprint PCS Ready LinkSM allows you to enjoy quick, two-way, “walkie-talkie-style”communication with one or several Sprint PCS Ready Link users (page 159).
