While it does guess that 28/12/07 is the 28th of December, it is just as likely to decide that 01/10/07 is the 10th of January - causing me to wonder where the resulting iCal appointment has gone.

Neat! One annoying thing though, the feature always tries to add MY OWN email to the newly created entries in the Address Book.
