I would love to know why they are going backwards and hope they can correct some of these things.

Case in point:"Notes" in "Contacts".
You used to be able to QUICKLY access them to read to add information.
Now, the notes done't even come up any more. HTC forces you to go to "edit". Then "edit contacts". Then you have to scroll all the way to the bottom. Then you have to hit "more". THen you have to select "notes".

What a pain in the ass! Especially if you are in a meeting and need to access or add info in real time.

The original WM5 contacts were easier to navigate than this.
This is NOT progress.

Yeah, it does take too many steps to view the note in HTC "Contacts". However you can quickly access the same note using following steps:

1. Tap the "Start" on the upper left-hand corner of your screen.
2. Tap on the icon of "Outlook Contacts". It'll bring up Contact list.
3. Locate the name of the contact and tap on it. It'll bring up the "Contacts" screen.
4. On the lower left-hand corner, it should have a tab for "Note" Just tap on it.

You may want to create a quick link of "Outlook Contacts" on your home tab for quicker access to the contact's note.
