Global Address List (GAL) on the Nexus one?

---

Hi All

I tried searching everywhere, no one could give me an answer to this. I am yet to receive my Nexus one and I had 2 major concerns.

1. I would like to be able to search the Global Address List (GAL) for a phone number to make a phone call.

2. To search and input email addresses from the Global Address List (GAL) when composing a mail.

Can some one please clarify if it is currently possible, if not as usual please tell us a way forward.

Thanks in advance and sorry if I am naive.

i tried the one off the droid, installs but doesn't work says requires other droid peices, calendar sync from droid fails install all together

I saw just this solution for GAL now..

Is there anyway the calendar and the GAL can be incorporated without rooting the phone. I am a big time n00b and dont want to risk screwing the warranty on a new $600 phone, especially when i live on the other side of the earth

This solution does not work on Nexus One

Does any one have a solution for N1 with the original ROM

I was trying to figure this out a long while ago for the Magic when we were still using Exchange at work. The only way I could find then was syncing to Google Contacts and get those on the phone. There are a number of solutions for getting contacts from Exchange -> Google, but I can't remember much about it anymore.
