whatsapp in my phone contacts?

[tomakukoc]

hi, before my new HTC 8X I was using Whatsapp on Xperia x8. On xperia when I got into one of phone contacts i was able to choose call or send message via sms or via Whatsapp. That way I new right away if contact is using whatsapp. Now on HTC none of my phone contacts show info about using or not whatsapp, so I have to go into whatsapp and check if my friend is using it.
Is there any way to change this, so that I have a same option as I had on xperia?
tnx
Toma

The one and only way to have something like that is for Whatsapp to connect with your phone like the Microsoft's Facebook app. That way you see contacts from Whatsapp in the People applicaton on your phone. Then you link the contacts eq. your friend's whatsapp profile, facebook profile, outlook contact, etc and you have them on one place with one name. Then when you hit his name you have call and text options. But for now whatsapp hasn't made this and I don't think they will in the future.
