I see that my contacts have "birthday" for those I added birthdays to.
This is great, I only added "anniversaries" in the calendar because the
Nokia (6120 Classic) doesn't show the contact properties on the
calendar. That's a Nokia problem, so I'll stick with contact properties
for birthdays.
I do notice though that I can add other sorts of properties to a contact
on the Nokia phone. I don't plan on using many of these, but possibly
"SIP" and "Anniversary" (a date) would be useful (the second was erased
for all of my contacts ;)
Perhaps I am asking for things that are Nokia additions that aren't
compatible with SymcML.. I'm unsure as I don't know which document to check.
Also, why does Turba require a last name? Some of my contacts only had
a first name, so now they are "John John" where the second name was
automatically added..
Thanks for your fast response.
