I'm assuming that the Google Contacts syncadapter is somehow tied into
a C2DM listener so that it knows when an update has occurred on the
server and it needs to sync.  Am I correct? (ie, someone updates a
contact via the website, Google sends an update notification message
from their servers to your phone, your phone initiates an update)

If so, is there a way that my syncadapter can also be notified at the
same time?  Can I just register myself as a listener somehow?  Polling
doesnt seem like the correct solution here, but maybe that is the only
option.

I've noticed a few people posting questions about "extending
contacts", so its possible they are trying to do the same thing I am.
I simply want to store some values in the "gContact:userDefinedField"
fields (as defined in the Contacts API
http://code.google.com/apis/contacts/docs/3.0/reference.html#gcUserDefinedField),
and have them synchronized on the device.  Has anyone succeeded with
this?
