I assume you are talking about accessing calendar and contact data on the 
desktop which should be synced with a mobile device, right?
If that's the case there are two possibilities: KResources provided by KCal 
and KABC and Akonadi.
If you need something working in 4.1, use the first. Akonadi will be available 
but not yet the default way on accessing contact and calendar data. The plan 
is to change that for 4.2 with the help of Kevin's KResource <-> Akonadi 
bridges. So, for anything beyond 4.1 Akonadi is the way to go. Since 4.1 is 
feature frozen by the time GSoC starts, 4.2 looks like the more realistical 
target here anyway.
