<address> is an element designed to contain contact information. So if you 
want to include contact information use <address>. That is indepenent of 
using hCard or not. <address> is a html element, specified by the w3c, hCard 
is an attribute vocabulary, designed by microformats. You can pretty well use 
both together. In fact, microformats is designed in that way: To be used 
together with html.
