Funny thing. It's just yesterday I started working on it. :)

In fact it's just a pointer to an image. Just like 0x37.

Well, I also don't know what this entry denotes but it contains entry location.

Last name.

First name.

Do you know what is it?

Do you know what is it?

This is supported. Well, sort of.

Do you know what it is supposed to be?

Not address per se. It is just a mark that snail mail address parts
will follow. It contains number of the address parts following.

> 0x4c -> Unmatched

       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_ExtendedAddress = 0x4b,
       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_Street          = 0x4c,
       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_City            = 0x4d,
       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_StateProvince   = 0x4e,
       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_ZipCode         = 0x4f,
       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_Country         = 0x50,

And there are some more:
       GN_PHONEBOOK_ENTRY_UserID          = 0x38,
something of form wv:something

This it taken from Nokia 6136.

vcal is also subject to extend. And xgnokii.

Well, gnokii does it. Enable debug and use --getphonebook. And read
the entry adding, changind and deleting the entry details. That is
what I did.

Thanks for your work! I will merge it with my version.

take care,
