Contacts

Contacts is a small, lightweight addressbook that uses libebook. This is the same library that GNOME Evolution uses, so all contact data that exists in your Evolution database is accessible via Contacts. Contacts features advanced vCard field type handling and is designed for use on hand-held devices, such as the Nokia 770 or the Sharp Zaurus series of PDAs.

Contacts!

I'm very proud to present the first release of Contacts - An evolution-data-server using address book, designed for use on hand-held devices (like the Nokia 770), but also quite useful on the desktop. Although it uses evolution-data-server, there are some incompatabilities with addresses in Evolution (as I try to conform to vCard specification and Evolution handles addresses very oddly). Hopefully you'll enjoy the superior type and category handling though :)

Some screens:






If you want to check it out from subversion, you can do so with the following line:
svn co http://svn.o-hand.com/repos/contacts/trunk contacts

Or you can grab the release tarball.
