About Contacts
iPad lets you easily access and edit your contact lists from personal, business, and 
organizational accounts. You can search across all of your groups, and the information 
in Contacts is automatically accessed to make addressing emails quick and easy. 
You can add contacts directly on iPad, or sync contacts from applications on your 
computer. If you have a MobileMe or Microsoft Exchange account with Contacts 
enabled, or a supported CardDAV account, you can sync your contacts over the air 
without connecting iPad to your computer.
