Call History provides a record of calls that have been dialed, received,
or missed on the phone. A single Call History record represents a single
phone call and contains the various attributes of the call. The call record
may be further associated with a contact through its phone number in which
case the contact information is utilized when displaying the record.
Up to 50 call records are permitted, the oldest record being discarded when a
new record is created.
