Hello, ive got a bit of a problem with contacts on my HTC Desire, when i copy sim contacts to phone , they copy each other and i end up having double, and when some of my contatcs send me sms msgs the phone doesnt recognize them cuz they start with the area codes and my contacts are saved without area codes, yet if i change my contacts to have area codes i will not be able to identify my friends when they call me cuz the number that shows when someone is calling doesn't show area code just the number... and another thing what should i do so i can get my phone contatcts to be synced with my facebook contatcs without having 2 of every contacts in my people application...
 
in the people app, you can 'link' contacts together to merge multiple instances of the same contact, eg. a face book entry and a contact one.

open one instance of the contact and look for the little chan icon and the word 'link'
go through each contact and link it to its duplicates.

may not fix your problem, but may make it easier to mannage.
