We show that the amenability constant of $A(G)$ is less than or equal to $\sup \{°(π) : π\in \hat{G} \}$ and that it is equal to one if and only if $G$ is abelian.LaTeX2e; 11 pages; some more minor revisionsFunctional AnalysisPrimary 46H20; Secondary 20B99, 22D05, 22D10, 43A40, 46J10, 46J40, 46L07, 47L25, 47L50The amenability constant of the Fourier algebratext
