But that isn't going to be much help on your iPhone when not at your Mac, is it? Speaking for myself (w/o iPhone service), most phone numbers I embed in notes are for those who aren't in my address book. On the Mac, I'm happy to use Spotlight to pull up a number quickly for a regular contact, but don't want to clutter my address book further with numbers/contacts likely to be used only once. If I'm working from the iPad or iPod, I might well not have any internet connectivity, so a few seconds to bring up the note vs. maybe not making the call is a good tradeoff. The phone call is likely to be much longer than either lookup :-)
