Is anyone able to get facebook user's address, phone # using FQL or Graph api?

Have tried the following FQL and was able to get 'Current City' and 'Hometown' which are under 'Basic information' but not the 'Address' or 'Phone' which are under 'Contact Information'.

SELECT name,first_name,last_name,birthday_date,current_location,hometown_location,pic,profile_url,timezone,username,profile_update_time FROM user WHERE uid IN (xxxx)

These attributes are specifically and intentionally not available via the API, for spam prevention reasons (maybe other reasons as well)...you can find a thread in the Facebook API forums on it here.

Facebook forum thread on this seems to be old - Does anyone know if this info is still blocked with the new graph api. Some mobile apps include FB iphone app seem to get the user info.

@amu - Does the FB iPhone app use that API? I was under the impression their app had access to much more data than the traditional API does.

A: 

This is definitely still not allowed by Facebook.
