After downloading the trial version and installing it, you'll be prompted with a registration dialog.  Just Cancel this to go into trial mode, which lasts for 14 days.

For fewer key presses and shorter input time when searching a contact, try KeyMatch instead of the normal methods. You can activate it in the list view by choosing Options > Find > KeyMatch. Key match is sort of like predictive text, and will match each letter represented by each keypress, so pressing "2" will search for "2, a,b or c" and so forth. For example, to search for "Simon," you would only need to press "7, 4, 6, 6 and 6" once each instead of having to press each key multiple times to select the correct letter.

By holding down the menu key on your phone, you will bring up an application list. If for example you want to go straight to DreamConnect from another application, simply hold in the menu key until you get the list of open applications, and select the DreamConnect icon.

You can access zoom quickly without going into the menu by using the volume control on the side of your smartphone. Simply press volume up to zoom in and down to zoom out. There are five levels of zoom, and the level you select is remembered.

From the contact list, scroll to the contact you want to edit and press the select key twice on non-touch phones to go straight to the editor. For touch screen phones, tap on the contact to go to the details view, then tap on the contact name to start editing.
