iPod Contacts Import AppleScripts Available

Apple posted two AppleScripts for importing contacts from Apple's Mac OS X Address Book and Microsoft's Entourage to the iPod using iPod Software v1.1 released late Wednesday. We trashed the contacts that we manually moved last night and tried the AppleScript for Entourage. The good news is that the AppleScript allows one to select whether the contacts are ordered by the first or last name. The bad news is that the contacts end up being a single vcf file, making editing them difficult if not impossible. We would like to delete a bunch but we haven't found a way yet. In addition, iTunes 2.0.4 did not update our iPod Help files for the contacts or equalizer presets functions.
