Hi Ron, watchout with the jailbrake becaous it will void your warranty over the iphone. If you want to sync the phone's contact with "something", you really should check the iphone API and build an iphone application which hooks and listens for contact's change and then notify the changes to your server. I know building an iphone app is a pain, but I think its the right way to do it, if not the only. Is this need for a hobbie or you need to implement this for a public application? Cheers.
