One of the "best" features of the n900 for me is the ability to "merge" contacts. If we just implement new "backends" one for each contact engine we will loose that. Every new "client" application will have to know how to deal with more than one backend at a time and store on a "client specific" place any "merging information".
My concern is that for the contacts api to be really useful to write client applications you don't want to have each client application to have to deal with this complexity.
I actually wonder if we could put a wrapper around QtMobility contacts that is a drop in API that handles merging....

I was curious if this discussion has led anyone else to start writing a Google QtMobility Contacts Engine?
If not, I think I'll start working on one. There is already another contact engine I want to write so it could be a good learning experience for me (C++ developer but never done Qt in C++ before). Maybe when QtMobility 1.1 comes out I'll also write a Google calendar engine (since I also have another calendar engine I want to write).
MyContacts is a little empty without my contacts....
Edit: I might not be able to participate as regularly for the next month or so.

Of course the database is not all because we have to be able to handle "events" like the presence status.

New build uploaded.
From the changelog in the wiki:
2010-08-14:
* Inbox how uses data API instead of screen scraping the website.
* Calls, sms and voicemail all work from the Inbox page.
* Contacts and Inbox page use the same interface to make calls and send texts.
Edit: There will no longer be builds using the old QT Mobility libraries.
The Nokia QT SDK has provided the updates for the net libraries, and from the download numbers, I don't see anyone downloading the old deb file.
Also: This build requires libqt4-script. To install it, you will need to enable additional repositories. I am unsure which is the exact repository needed because I enabled three repositories: Extras testing, extras devel and Nokia tools.

New build uploaded: This build should fix any contacts related weirdness.
In case your contacts list has some bad entries or duplicates, I recommend deleting ~/.gvdial.sqlite.db and re-logging-in to repopulate the cache.

New build uploaded.
-> Revamped the entire UI.

symbian build is broken because of qtsingleapplication.
The symbian build on the downloads page is the old one.

App screenshot. If you notice, only the dialpad has the style sheet.
It is possible to put in your own style sheets.
Details will follow as soon as I have it tested.

Will this ever be made available on Diablo 4?
I guess I'm spoiled with epage always thinking about more than just the N900 phone.
