This is GREAT news!!

All I need now is Flash and an App that automatically changes the wallpaper in a set interval (and pull from flckr images online as well as a dedicated folder...anyone listening?)!

Groups don't get imported, the Pre Google API uses ALL Contacts and doesn't bring in specific groups (like MY Contacts)... so that's a BIG no.
is their anyway to put just a group name on the email app and have it populate all of those people on that group?

Ex: email friends and 5 people that i have marked as friend on the PRE, automatically get populated?

Your example is a bit confusing for me... do you think you can clarify?

I have not found an ability to label anyone within the Contact app (like in notes field) and then do a Universal search on that label of "friend".

So what happens when you double tap? Is it zooming in on the wrong area? Can you zoom in with multi touch then?

in gmail contacts, i can make a group an called it "Palm PRE Friends" and then put 3 of my contacts on this group.
then i can compose an email and just type "Palm PRE Friends" and gmail populates all 3 of my contacts emails, instead of having to type each of my 3 contacts names.

is this possible?
again, thanks for answering these questions. i appreciate it

Multitouch zoom works like a champ... double tap either zooms in the wrong area or just a tiny bit so that it wasn't really effective in zooming at all (if it goes wrong, it's 65/35 in favor of working).

Totally gotcha now... nope! Since the sync brings in ALL Contacts and not the group labels you've put on the contacts, you can't start typing "Palm..." and then have that group show up, because that group association didn't import upon syncing...

can you see ON THE PRE itself if you can go into 2 or 3 contacts and somehow group them but labelling them or putting something on a "company name" field or something and then try to type that name to try pull off the group thing.

if its too much work, dont worry about it....anyways...thanks for answering my previous questions....i appreciate it

So I put on a Company name on a few contacts... so when I type that company name in Contacts, Email or Messaging, the drop down shows up with anyone who has that company name (including all of their emails for the email program, so my wife's 3 email accounts shows up), in SMS all of the phone numbers shows up (not just mobile) so if I have like 3 people in the "company" but they each have 2-3 numbers... that could be 6-9 numbers that pop up... It's a mess, I wouldnt say that is effective at all.
