That's certainly a unique issue with such a great phone, rjfergus. Did you happen to download any new applications around the same time this started happening? Do you use any 3rd party messaging application? When you look in your contacts, please make sure that the numbers are saved as 10 digits (no 1 before the area code, and not missing the area code). Also, make sure the number is saved as a mobile number, not home or work, to ensure your phone recognizes it properly.

Thank you

Go to address book - menu key and click "filters" - if anything is checked - un-check it and see what happens. Check are you encrypt your address book too... options->security->encryption...
