Both. You may have a home addresss, an office address, a contact may
spend half his time in the austin office the other half in the boston.

I envision a screen that shows the primary contact information, with a
link that shows other, extra, additional (whatever we call it).

I can click on Additional Addresses (as an example) for more info. THat
