- Need both reading and writing
- Need API for storing multimedia. Can store that locally in DCF format which is then exposed when plugging phone in.
- Contacts
- Use case includes a full contacts manager
- Request based vs. callback based
- It might be possible to do on top of intents. However for now we need to do this as a plain API and feed those requirements into a intent-based API.
