Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've installed Star Contact for Android OS. It is an improvement on the standard in that the search is better, but not great. It doesn't seem to search company names.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Are you still on the contacts tab, with its T9-style pad? When I switch to the search tab, search by company is the first selection in the pick-list, and it works okay for me.

Switch to the search tab how, from where? In Star Contacts or normal Contacts?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

In StarContact, I have four tabs at the top of the screen: Contacts - Phone - Call log - Search.

On the Search screen, there is a field for keyword entry, a "Search By:" pick-list, and a Search button. The pick-list offers Company, Phone Number, Email, IM, Address, and Note

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

New Tivo arrived!! I may actually have a working DVR by the Oscars on Sunday. Woo hoo!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You might not have a station to watch the Oscars, though: [link]

Shhhhhhhhhhhh. I'm in denial about that.

Even better news, TiVo won't be going out of business anytime soon.
