BitPim over USB for Motorola and LG contacts
I am looking for the most effective way to backup and restore phone contacts to and from a PC. I have the following phones, all on Verizon, Motorola V276, E815, V60s; LG VX-4400, VX-8100. The PC would be used as backup for the contacts (calendar too if possible), and for easier data entry.
Syncing with Outlook (old 2000 version) would be good, but its not critical. The outlook database is way too big to fit on the phones, so "syncing" requires manual intervention anyway. Maybe setting up categories for the contacts that go to the phones could work, but in my experience, either software bugs or human data entry error make this type of automation unreliable.
I plan to use Excel to massage, sort and otherwise manipulate the contact data...
