Does anyone hare have an Android based phone and use it with Linux on their desktop?
I have an HTC Desire, and use it with Linux (and Mac) in an occasional development capacity (installing test apps and debugging javascript, etc, over adb). Mandriva and Mac OS X both trivially mount the entire filesystem as a USB disk drive, however although stuff like music and photos are directly browseable and copy-able, all the other data appears to be in some binary format (and the filenames all look vaguely MD5-with-an-a-to-Z-radix-ish).
My experience is that local data is mostly stored in sqlite; certainly SMS/MMS are (and the database can be read just fine on an x86 desktop box with sqlite). I haven't felt the need to poke at the contact stuff but I'd be surprised if it was different.
