Or at a minimum, trying to find it! It’s only been a few days but we’ve learned a lot and will be responding to feedback with improvements in short order. One issue that we’ve seen in this blog is “where in the heck/he__ is the AddressBook app?”. We made a mistake and were not as explicit as we should have been that only Android 1.6 is supported by AddressBook at this time. We realize this is a disappointment to HTC Hero (guess who LUVs her Hero, me) and Moto Cliq users. However, try as we might, there was a severe bug introduced with Android 1.5 that added significant instability into our app, especially with installation and deletion of mixins. We worked with Google, submitted a fix for Andorid on 1.5, and while Google was able to respond for 1.6, there was not an opportunity for them to get the fix into an update for 1.5. If any of you out there are willing to join our “guinea” program (very pre-release), and likewise are willing to follow a strict set of guideline for installing/de-installing with “as is” ground rules, please email us at addressbook.support@asuion.com to discuss use on 1.5. If not, we’re working day and night to be ready for 2.0 and still taking stock of what we might do for 1.5. Keep the feedback coming, we are listening, -Nancy I and the AddressBook team would like to thank everyone for trying and giving feedback on AddressBook. Or at a minimum, trying to find it!
