Thanks for your reply...
After looking into it further, I see that I'd have to write my own contact
list anyhow, as I have a few very specific fields, that I would like the
users to add to if they needed...
It seems ashame though.. I know that many of the contacts that they'll need
in my app would be nice to be shared with the intrinsic address book..
Maybe I'll look into somehow doing a "share" scheme, so that they can copy
between the two... hmmm
I'm heading for trouble.
