After reviewing Dow's comments on kaddressbook, I don't think your issues are 
resolved. I can only get a fax number to display as "Other". But there are 
enhancements to the address book. You can add a photo, a wave file or geo 
data for the entry. Kaddressbook itself is now part of Kontact, which is one 
application containing Kmail, Knotes, Kaddressbook, Korganizer, Knode and a 
summary page as kparts all together. The summary page can pick up limited RSS 
feeds and the weather, as well as showing pending appointments, todo's and 
new e-mails. All kde applications now have interactive spell checking. This 
includes Konqueror. So, you get spelling help as you fill out forms on the 
Web. There is also a password minder called Kwallet that can keep all of your 
passwords under one password. It's optional, if you don't like that idea. I 
never paid much attention to Ark before, but I like being able to extract 
files immediately upon downloading. You can do this within Konqueror. Kgpg 
does a great job of managing keys and can verify them on the key server. You 
don't need to leave Kmail to do this. And Konqueror is much improved too. 
It's faster and more stable and offers a thoroughly customizable sidebar, 
that has useful builtins (like a media player) and can add any URL that you 
find useful. So, yeah, I think that's a quantum leap forward from the 3.1 
series. For office use, Kontact alone would be worth the upgrade. And I think 
everyday users would be pleasantly surprised by the interactive spell 
checking.
