I have my address book's option to sort by <Last Name><First Name>
(Ex. Smith John)
Check my screenshot: http://i48.tinypic.com/2mhwp4i.png
But in the Gmail contact list all the names becomes <First Name><Last
Name> (Ex. John Smith)
Now, this is correctly formatted for the western culture but not in
Japan.
Spanning Sync need some kind of option to keep the Address Book's name
formatting
to accomodate Japanese names.
I drew a diagram so if my description is hard to visualize.
