It would be really useful when you view a contact to be able to see that you have a deal pending with them on the initial view. As it is, you have to "check" under deal to see if they have one running or not. It is only a minor but it would be much easier.

Maybe the same also for activities outstanding. It would only need a sort of check mark or number flag or something (like Apple does with messages on the front screen of an iphone say) to tell you that it was there...
