Has anyone found someway to alert them when they get to a specific business/address/etc. that is NOT saved as a contact? Or do I have to rely on a Cydia developer getting annoyed too once an untethered iOS5 jb is released??...I don't see Apple doing anything about this issue taking into account how long it took to get MMS, copy&paste, etc.. SO FRUSTRATING!
Only way I've found of doing it is running a map search and then saving it as a contact, which results in a ton of clutter in the main contact list (I've since found that through iCloud you can create a group called "Businesses" or whatever but creating/editing a group can only been done via a computer, so its a bitch to manage)
It would be so much simpler if you could just say for instance "Siri, remind to get some coffee beans the next time I'm near Ozo Coffee in Boulder, Colorado" to which Siri would say "the Ozo Coffee on Pearl St. or Arapahoe?" I'd chose one or be able to say either, and then have a reminder set for the next time I'm in the area.
I've had literally every iPhone on launch day and have been a mac user/owner for over ten years, but I really get frustrated with how long it takes to update very simple things like this. I mean, how were people creating groups of contacts before iCloud? I never even tried before being forced to save places as Contacts. It would be so simple to implement creating a group right on the phone, it makes me sick. While I'm on the subject of contacts, WTF are 'Montage Contacts'? I did a quick google search but saw nothing on the front page and dont' have the time to research something I'll prolly never use.
Welp thats my rant for the day

Make a contact of the store name under company name and enter the address. Next time it won't even ask which street you want it on. SIRI is still beta, so as it progresses like an AI it'll be more efficient.
