           Summary: contact detail view takes too much space
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: tokoe@kde.org
        ReportedBy: p92@free.fr


Version:           3.1 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-2mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21pre4-10mdkenterprise

as shown in attachement, I think that the detail view of a contact is poorly formatted especially if foreign lang translation is used.

why are these information displayed on 2 columns ?

Look at all the free space wasted between.

It could be bettre to put all inportant info on the left column
and less important on the right 

and implement column wrapping

my phones are truncated on the right and the width of this detail window should be normally 33% of the whole  not 80% as here.

Also there is no mention of the COMPANY (organisation) anywhere in the big yellow header
