Conspiracy theorist in me wonders if this move might have anything to do with the new facebook integration in iOS... millions of iPhones are about to start automatically pulling contact info from facebook, wouldn't it be nice if all those people started using their @facebook.com email address?

Since this change, I haven't seen any difference in my contacts. It looks like it's still pulling all available email addresses, not just facebook.com ones.

I assume you're running iOS 6, yes?

Yes indeed.

I'm afraid the details of the iOS 6 features other than what's announced in WWDC are still under NDA (which you signed when you gain access to the developer beta). So perhaps you want to remove that comment.

This much is completely public:

http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/#facebook

(Click the "Contacts and calendars", and see that contacts can have multiple addresses, even with Facebook sync.)

Why do you care about that? Why does it matter to you that someone is discussing something Apple NDAed?

Do you care at all if it something Androidish? Something from MS? From anyone except Apple? If no, then shut your hypocritical mouth.
