You get full credit for find the bug, providing data files to track it 
down, reproduce it and fix it.

Thank you! Consider this your virtual gold star :-)

Prior to 1.0.4b2 we sometimes converted notes and address fields to a 
European encoding, resulting in the loss of any data which could not be 
represented in that encoding.  Now we keep things in various Unicode 
encodings which should prevent any data loss.

If you use Japanese data, please give Yomi/Phonetic First and Last 
names a try, they should now sync between Address Book and the device.
