[X4U] Transfer, sync Address book data?

[John Erdman]

I've had very good luck syncing both Address book and Calendar using
Dropbox (free) and creating symbolic links. My OS is Snow Leopard and I
don't have a specific info as to whether there were changes in Lion that
make this impossible. But somehow I doubt it. Here's a link that will give
you some instructions. Googling will bring you others.
