Hi Warren,

1. I can't recall why I commented this out. It should work just
fine :)

2. If you want to check a specific contact to see if your changes went
though, you could query the self link (entry.GetSelfLink().href) to
refetch from the server. I find I often want to use a different set of
contacts than the default first page returned by the server, so I tend
to use query parameters to look at the most recently edited contacts
first or look for entries modified since a certain date. Documentation
on the query parameters in the contacts API can be found here:

Happy coding,

Jeff
