Yup, you can update a user's contacts (address book) through the API. I'm working on doing it in C#. The documentation for Java is much more complete, it's here: http://code.google.com/apis/contacts/docs/2.0/developers_guide_java.html . I've gotten sample code from Google to work on the C# implementation I'm working on, but the above link has sample code and should help you out a lot.
