ABNewPersonViewController has a read/write property on it, "addressBook", that determines to what address book newly-created contacts are added. What I would do in this situation is to create a temporary ABAddressBookRef, create the view controller, set the view controller's addressBook property to my temporary ABAddressBookRef, and then later get the data I need from the temporary ABAddressBookRef and then dispose of the temporary addressBook appropriately.
