I also recommend checking out http://www.scrubly.com. They offer a free tool to remove gmail duplicate contacts. I used it recently and worked well.

I had a difficult time finding this too, but finally figured this out. The problem with the instructions is that you must add a prestep before step #1.

Step 1: Open gmail and click on contacts.
Step 1a: Click one set of duplicates, click "Merge these 2 contacts…".
Step 1b: Once you click that it will take you to the window shown in screenshot on step one.

Now it allows you to do a search on all duplicates and merge them. Works wonderfully!

Can't find the "Find Duplicates" button. I wonder if they removed it when they introduced Buzz
