The trick with Bento is NOT to try to import vCard data - just go to the 
Address Book library which is built in to Bento when you first load it - even 
the trial version. The nice thing about this is that the Bento <-> Address Book 
connection goes both ways: as you add new addresses to Address Book, they 
automatically appear in Bento, and vice-versa. Bento will give you all the 
sorting options you need.
