Here is my code for plucking useful bits out of the addressBook, see if you can use any of it. This code works on both the sim and phone.

- (BOOL)peoplePickerNavigationController:(ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *)peoplePicker 
	  shouldContinueAfterSelectingPerson:(ABRecordRef)person { 
	
	customer.firstName = (NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonFirstNameProperty);
	customer.lastName = (NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonLastNameProperty);
	customer.companyName = (NSString *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonOrganizationProperty);
	
	if (!customer.firstName.length) {
		customer.firstName = @"*";
	}
	
	if (!customer.lastName.length) {
		customer.lastName = @"*";
	}
	
	if (!customer.companyName.length) {
		customer.companyName = @"";
	}


	CFStringRef email, emailLabel, phone, phoneLabel;
	
	ABMutableMultiValueRef phoneMulti = ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonPhoneProperty);
	NSMutableDictionary *myPhoneDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithCapacity:ABMultiValueGetCount(phoneMulti)];
	for (CFIndex i = 0; i < ABMultiValueGetCount(phoneMulti); i++) { 
		
		phoneLabel = ABAddressBookCopyLocalizedLabel(ABMultiValueCopyLabelAtIndex(phoneMulti, i));
		phone = ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(phoneMulti, i); 
		[myPhoneDict setObject:(NSString*)phone forKey:(NSString*)phoneLabel];
		CFRelease(phone);
		CFRelease(phoneLabel);
		
	} 
	
	if ( [myPhoneDict objectForKey:@"mobile"] != nil) {
		customer.phone  = [myPhoneDict objectForKey:@"mobile"];
	} else if ( [myPhoneDict objectForKey:@"home"] != nil) {
		customer.phone  = [myPhoneDict objectForKey:@"home"];
	} else if ( [myPhoneDict objectForKey:@"work"] != nil) {
		customer.phone  = [myPhoneDict objectForKey:@"work"];
	}
	

	ABMutableMultiValueRef multi = ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonEmailProperty);
	NSMutableDictionary *myEmailDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithCapacity:ABMultiValueGetCount(multi)];
	for (CFIndex i = 0; i < ABMultiValueGetCount(multi); i++) { 
		
		emailLabel = ABAddressBookCopyLocalizedLabel(ABMultiValueCopyLabelAtIndex(multi, i));
		email = ABMultiValueCopyValueAtIndex(multi, i);

	}
