Setting Up Your Contact List and Phonebook
With the Messenger Phone, you can store and manage all your contact information in Windows Live™ Messenger's
online contact list and then easily download the names and phone numbers directly to your handset's phonebook. The
contact list and the phonebook are completely independent: you can store names and phone numbers in your contact
list that are not in your phonebook, and vice versa. The table below lists the differences between the contact list and
the handset phonebook and how much information can be stored in each one.
