Question: I'm trying to get my new Android phone running without speaking to Google or sending them my data. For the moment, I've got Funambol Running, but Funambol doesn't have a Thunderbird client. They do have an Evolution plugin, however. I'm not prepared to switch over to Evolution, because I really like Thunderbird and have it all set up just so. 

So I'm trying to figure out a way to get Evolution to read my Thunderbird address book or vice versa. That way I can sync Thunderbird to Evolution, Evolution to Funambol, Funambol to Android. 

I'm open to better solutions here, too.

Answer: 
Yes, Thunderbird uses EDS by default in 11.10, which means that it is shared with Evolution. EDS currently has issues with DesktopCouch addressbooks, but others seem to work nicely.
You could manually save and load adressbooks via dropbox or similar services! There is a dropbox app for android, should work. But that's not what you want, is it?
