Access the address book without a choice or user interface

Question

I read somewhere that Aurora Feint was able to access the address book without using a collector. Is it possible to iterate over all records? Aurora Feint is available on the AppStore, so I assume they use the SDK without any private frameworks.

Thank!

You can use the pretty standard AB * features in the iPhone address book. This includes iterating over existing contacts in the address book and each of the contact attributes. Not the easiest API to use, but there are samples.
