T9 support in iOS dialer

Hello,

I'm asking me Why there's no T9 support in the dialer to get the desired contact faster. Many other mobile brands are already supporting this very useful function. Looking for a contact in the contact-list takes much longer and the favourites-list is also incomplete for most cases.

I'd really welcome this function!

iPhone4, iOS 4

we're talking about T9 when typing numbers in the keypad.
this function doesn't intefere the standard calling process. you don't have to use the suggest name and call the typed number right away...
