While Alfresco doesn't have the bits about calendar integration, that's easily obtained from davical. Device integration for things like calendars isn't that difficult but the lack of standards on for address books can be a real issue for things like the smartphones which allow a lot of telephone numbers per contact, and vary in mapping every day fields such as home addresses. Even Gmail doesn't completely solve it but handles the simple users rather easily.
