Contacts is part of the operating system. Your apps are not, unless you roll your own firmware and put your apps in it. Outside of putting content on external storage (which wouldn't need a content provider), you cannot readily share information between multiple apps such that any of those apps could be removed without issue. You could arrange for *all* the apps to each have their own copy of the data, I suppose, though that would require N times the storage space for N apps. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to *Advanced* Android Development_ Version 2.1 Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
