Yes. It uses the same database so you can add other info (street addresses, etc.) that the built-in voip contacts manager won't display but at least won't clobber either.

I was looking at SyncEvolution and it might work, except that it requires a third party interface (ie scheduleword, Funabol). I rely on Google Calendar, Contacts, etc and I didn't see where it would sync to Google contacts, or directly to my Evolution on the desktop. FYI, anyboy have a working script?

EDIT:

I tried to download the package from Downloads, the SyncEvolution Site, and even a direct entry. It seems there are no packages available to get! The packages.tar.gz exists, but there is no actual file to download for the n810 or otherwise.

I wouldn't use google for more than absolutely necessary. All my contacts are in evolution. I sync them to scheduleworld, sync my mobile to scheduleworld and used to do the same with my old 770. Was a nice workflow and allowed me to sync wherever I was, not only when I was right at my desktop.

It's such a pity that the most useful applications sometimes just disappear. It should have been in extras in the first place. The way it is now, nobody ever finds it, so it's no wonder the author might think nobody's interested.

Can anybody get it to work?
