Is it possible to use a ABPersonViewController or ABUknownPersonViewController for displaying contact info?

Question

Is it possible to use ABPersonViewController or ABUknownPersonViewController to display contact information within my app.

ie.) you click a button that says "contact info" -> which then loads a ABPersonViewController with static information such as address and phone number etc and would be pushed onto the NavigationController?

The reason i want to use this is the nice functionality which is built in already. -buttons that have address and phone numbers in them that are nicely formatted and when clicked perform phone calls or open the map.

Sure, you can use these. Set ABUnknownPersonViewController.allowsAddingToAddressbook to NO to prevent the user from adding the info to an existing or new contact.
