Why is it blackberry's dont have the feature, "add to existing contacts"

It seems like you are always required to add a new contact, even if one already exist.

grrrahh I hate that!!

Why not just copy & paste? Seems like it's just as simple.

Go figure, that the iPhone, which lacks cut and paste has this feature. I suppose they figure you can help yourself since the BB has cut and paste.

Treat your password like your toothbrush. Don't let anybody else use it, and get a new one every six months.

i would say it depends what you are trying to add.
phone number, email address?
I've been able to "add to existing contact" before.

That was an investment figure, not R&D or development expenses.

Quite right, I'll revise:

Wow, it costs nowhere near $10m to produce an Outlook plugin and a BB app, what the hell are they spending the rest of the money on?!
