The problem is on the side of org-contacts.  Org-contacts does not
support links in its properties.  Thus, currently the only solution to
use the advantages of org-contacts and org-phone is to give the
information twice, like in the following example.

#+BEGIN_SRC org
* Strey, Michael
:PROPERTIES:
:EMAIL:    mstrey@strey.biz foo@bar.com
:PHONE:    +493514129535 +491263213
:END:

[[mailto:mstrey@strey.biz]]
[[mailto:foo@bar.com]]
[[phone:+49 (0)351 41295-35]]
[[phone:+49 126 3213]]
#+END_SRC

This shortcoming effects not only the phone links but email links as
well.
