    I think that if it was a job you sincerely wanted, a phone call is definitely OK (unless they have expressed somewhere: "ABSOLUTELY no phone calls!"). I find that courteousness and manners can go a long way. Back that up with sincerity and you have a better chance of making a good connection with them.

    I'm also a fan of hand written notes or some kind of custom letter. An email is really easy to ignore, and phone calls depend on someone's availability and presence. A hand written note with a nice presentation (like a custom envelope) would surely find its way to the right person.
