iPod touch Bug in iPod Touch Contacts App

[gbross]

I've discovered a bug (or is it a feature? ) in the Contacts App.

Try this...

Edit an existing contact which contains an address (street address, city, state etc).

Blank out all the fields on the address edit screen and try to save your changes. It will not allow you to save. You must have an entry in at least one of the fields.

I discovered this when updating an address of a friend who moved and I did not have their new address.

In the example you gave, you should pull up the person's record, hit [Edit] in the upper right of the screen and then touch the red button to the left of the address information. That will delete the address fields without affecting anything else. Any other information fields should be deleted in the same way.

Worked just like you said.

Thanks for the tip!
