Go into contacts. Depress the wheel, scroll down to SIM phone book and depress wheel. Should 'transfer' them all across.

or,

Use the sync software that came with your Samsung, snyc to Outlook on your PC

The use the software that came with the 8800 and sync with outlook.


By the way, how good is the GPS on the 8800?

Bugger. I was looking forward to the 'I told you so' follow up post. I managed to get the RTFM in - not that I ever do.

I love mine, for 1 main reason. I can be sitting on a beach sending emails and the boss thinks I am in the office working hard !
Perception is everything.

Hello

I really like my Blackberry as well. It can however become obsessive if you are not careful: I have been known to wake up in the night to go to loo, see the red light flashing on my blackberry and spend 10 minutes answering email.

I just picked up the 8100 pearl and it has shockingly short battery life in comparision to the last model I had.
