In an interesting twist from their PictureID application Toysoft has released Picture Dial. It is essentially a customizable speed-dial application based on pictures. It lets you dial a contact, send an SMS/email, or browse a website just by clicking pictures. There does seem to be a trial available and you can pick it up for a $5.95 at this link.

    I’ve downloaded it but havent had a real chance to play with it.
    I actually thought this would integrate with the current contacts, but you have to input them seperately- thats what made me loose interest.
    Maybe when I have a couple of HOURS on my hands, I’ll do that; but I dont see it happening any time soon.

    you can import all your contacts if it isnt huge.
    picture dial will get the home, office and mobile numbers and the picture for the contact or you can manually add contacts that you talk to regularly. so myself i only have 2 pages of picID speed dials. you wouldnt want to add contacts that you only talk to once a month.
