Abstract:
A method of ordering a phonebook stored in a communication device, wherein the phonebook contains a plurality of entries each corresponding to a telephone number, the method comprising the steps of:selecting at least two of the entries for dynamic ordering; counting a parameter relating to at least each of the entries selected for dynamic ordering; counting a number of calls and comparing the number of calls to a call ceiling; asking a user if the userwould like the phonebook to be reordered, when the number of calls equals the call ceiling; and re-ordering the phonebook based on the counting of the parameter for each of the entries selected for dynamic ordering so that entries selected for dynamic ordering associated with a higher parameter count appear in the phonebook before entries selected for dynamic ordering associated with a lower parameter count without changing the order of entries not selected for dynamic ordering.
