I just tried this and if you touch the right place, it says Table index, so I could flick up and down that without use of the pass'through.
Very good, thanks. I don't use these things enough it seems.

If you use a pass through gesture, double-tap and hold until after you hear the ascending triple tones, you can slowly slide your finger up and down the list of letters until you find the one you are seeking. At that point, lift your finger and the list of names will start with that letter. touch the screen to bring focus to the part of the contact list currently being displayed. The system works just like a Rolodex. The sighted user merely touches the letter in the list on the right of the display. With practice, you can learn to double-tap and hold at the level where the letter you want is and you won't need to move your finger much to find the proper letter.
