Multiple users on iPhone

My wife and I plan to share an iPhone. Is it possible to set up multiple users on the phone such that my mail/address book syncs to my Mac and her mail/address book syncs to her Mac?

G4, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

Sorry, I don't know of a way to create two different users ( pretty sure it is not possible).

It's easy. I work at home and don't need a mobile most of the time. She is the one that is out and about. I generally use an ATT Go Phone, but will use the iPhone when traveling or have special need of its functionality.

We probably don't fit into the brave new world of telecommunications but it works for us.

It is possible to have more than one email account on the iphone. just go to settings > Mail,Contact,Calendars > add account. Then all you have to do is choose your provider (Yahoo, AOL,G mail) and put in your information. And with the new updates you can have a different page on the home screen for the both of you so that you can have your own personalized home pages with the stuff you all use. Hope that was helpful.
