Not sure if I'm testing this correctly. In the phone contacts, hebrew come
after english. I set the last english contact to be very long and the next one
which is in hebrew still shows up fine.

Again, at least with CM6 I'm seeing hebrew right aligned (parenthesis get all
mixed up though, but they are notoriously unstable under a lot of systems)

Only place that I see problems with hebrew is in dejaoffice contacts

I'd be happy if you have some pointers to were I can get more info as it's
really annoying me at the moment. If there is any way to sync with linux it's
even better as my main system is linux, I'm backing up to my wife's machine,
just so that I have a backup.
