I attended a presentation by the technical director of Microsoft
Thailand, and what he showed us looked liked science fiction but is
available now (just not commercially viable yet). Cloud computing -
and that includes your managing of the addressbook - is coming. Soon,
believe me. My recommendation to Ritlabs is to be ready.

Nice idea, I second this.

But I do agree with Ritlabs that these are not core functions.
Filtering and VFs are. These need to be fixed before a release. The
addressbook feature would make the customer experience more complete.
