Putting spaces in phone number entries?

Hmmm, looks like a no-go. Even tried pasting a space character but no. Because the system sees the field as a telephone number type, it can't understand why anybody would want to put in anything other than 0 - 9, *, +, p, w or a ?

[quote="duncan"]In contacts, is there any way of putting a space (or hyphen) when entering phone numbers to make them easier to read.
I've tried and failed...[/quote]

I noticed that if you edit your contacts (you need to do it one by one, AFAIK) with Outlook (after a succesful synchronization) and set the phone contacts to use "international" format, when you put them back to the phone THEY HAVE SPACES between different parts of number (intl, areacode, number)

still can't understand why the phone allows pcsuite to put spaces and does not allow the user to do the same 😞
