Description:
TouchBook is a replacement for the default Address Book or Contacts application, TouchBook provides access your phones and addresses in a completely fascinating way: type or scroll, also including a favorites and a today screen.
TouchBook lets you use your fingers or the stylus to scroll through the list of phones. Just touch the screen and flick through the list using only your thumb! TouchBook also provides the usual way of searching through contacts - by typing on the Treo keyboard. Just type JD to quickly find John Doe in your list!
Send emails and SMS with ease using TouchBook! A powerfull skinning interface is a part of TouchBook. The user can create his own style of the program to fit his/her tastes. Add a wallpaper, fit it to the screen boundaries, choose text and selection colors and save it!
Favorites and Today screens are also integrated into TouchBook. The today screen shows your undone tasks and coming appointments. The favorites screen displays small photos of your favorite contacts you can quickly access!

A decent project, but it does not mimick the standard contact list well enough to be useful. For example, I have two Joe's in my list, joe smith and joe mama. If I start to type j-o-e neither of them will appear, I must search by last name. This is a huge annoyance. If I type Joe, anyone with joe in their name (first or last) should appear, this is how it works in the real contacts list. In addition this app has very poor touch controls, and having to hit extra buttons just to call is not helpful at all. If you want your list to look nice at the cost of functionality, by all means. I'm sticking with a list that actually works the way it should.
