Actually, it is sorted alphabetically, but by the first letter, rather than by
surname.
Note: See

I wonder if the wisdom of "do what's expected" works here. I've ALWAYS found
alpha sorting to be a pain - my wife lists me a "1kevin" to ensure that I'm at
the top of her list.
Would it not make more sense to have a "call count" that simply keeps a tally of
how often a contact calls or is called so that your most frequently used
contacts are always at the top?
