I think the issue here is usability. We'd like the entries in the GAL to
be
viewable in the same way that local "Contacts" are viewable - i.e.
Business
Cards, Address Cards, Phone List…

This would benefit users in a couple ways:
1. They wouldn't have to right-click and choose properties from inside the
GAL to view extended details (details which are in there via A/D but not
conveniently viewable via the default view in the GAL).

2. If there were a way to keep this view of the GAL in sync with A/D then
users could also have the full GAL sync to their mobile devices. Waste of
space - yes. Easier/faster than waiting for the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server
to complete the Lookup - absolutely. But let's not get started on BES…

If there is a 3rd party tool - I haven't been able to find one that does
it
and meets the main criteria of keeping the local machine copy synchronized
with A/D

Various information...Home phone, address, organization ect...

When I open a person in the GAL, I see quite a bit of organization
information, like direct reports, manager, business, mobile, pager, fax,
and
home phone numbers. I see only one mailing address (which we use to hold
the
business address), though.
