Smart Address Book Groups?

[texanpenguin]

Tiger apparently has smart everything else - do we get smart groups in Address Book?

I want to be able to group everyone together who have a certain last name, or a certain home-page, or a certain phone number range (internal).

Is this amazing application being sadly left behind, or are they just not advertising changes?

And does iCal keep up to date with Address Book birthdays yet?

According to here it can now do both.

Huzzah! It's like Tiger is the OS everyone's wanted all along.

Heaven knows what the hell they're going to do for 10.6 .

I'm sure there will be threads on 'Features wanted in 10.5' pretty soon, even though 10.4 has barely shipped

whats 10.5 gonna be?

Cheetah was 10.0
Puma was 10.1
Jaguar was 10.2
Panther was 10.3
Tiger was 10.4

my guess, Leopard or Liger, gotta make a Napolean Dynamite crack...
