I'm actually changing the stock Contacts app, to add more data to each contact list item. I was worried about having two asynchronous events, (get data from Contacts db, and get data from my new db). But perhaps it is better to do that. Any tips on best practices for dealing with multiple asynchronous events (realizing its not really an Android question) appreciated.
