Probably, you need to have your Evolution conduit read a different
database. pilot-link supports the one you want, the 'ContactsDB-PAdd'
database. The current conduit is
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/evolution/trunk/addressbook/conduit/address-conduit.c?view=log
and you'll need to write a new one that instead of using
http://cvs.pilot-link.org/include/pi-address.h?view=log uses
http://cvs.pilot-link.org/include/pi-contact.h?view=log - it's
very similar, just the structures have some more attributes (including
Location.)
