I'm confused, what exactly are you trying to figure out here? OS5 devices ship with the new PIM applications (Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Memos), instead of the previous applications.

Your existing conduits for Datebook, AddressBook, ToDo, Memos should work fine with these new PIM applications, because they are shadow databases.

Records are written to Contacts for example by default. If an application requests a record from AddressDB.pdb, it is copied there on-demand, and any changes put there are copied back into the main database (ContactsDB-PAdd.pdb) when completed.

Why do you care, as long as your data gets into and out of the applications that need it?
