About categories
You can create categories in which to group your
contacts, tasks, and memos. You can also narrow the
contacts, tasks, and memos that appear based on
categories.
Note:
Category names are not case sensitive. More than one
category can apply to a contact, task, or memo. If you
use IBM® Lotus Notes® as your desktop email
program, you can apply more than one category to a
task on your BlackBerry® device, but only one
category synchronizes with the task in your desktop
email program.
When you delete members from a group or delete a
group, the contacts remain in the address book.
About custom phone tunes
You can add a custom phone tune for a contact
without changing other notifications.
Categories are shared between the address book, the
task list, and the memos list and changes that are
made in one program are made in all programs.
Custom phone tune settings appear in both the
address book and the profiles list. When you add a
custom phone tune to a contact, a new profile
exception appears in the profiles list as “Calls From
<contact>.” Profile exceptions are shared between the
address book and the profiles list and changes made
in one program are made in the other program.
