Transfer Palm contacts to moto Droid w/o Gmail
No Gmail account? No worries. VZ only offered 2 solutions: import to gmail or have VZ store transfer the contacts.
You can export all your contacts from Palm Desktop into Droid, w/o any 3rd party intervention.
1) In Palm Desktop go to / Contacts / "Select All"
2) Go to File / export / choose "export as Vcard"
3) connect your Droid to PC / MAC , and select "Notifications" / USB.. / "Mount" on the Droid.
4) Locate your Droid microSD, (it will show up as a new drive letter), Copy your Vcard export to the Droid card.
4A) Unmount/disconnect your Droid from the PC before proceeding to step 5.
5) open Contacts on the Droid, select "Import/Export"
6) Select Import from SD card.
total process takes about 5-10 min.
For reference, 1 contact record on the Vcard is about 1k, while a book of over 600 contacts, is about a 121k vcard.
The export will carry over all your numbers, emails and addresses for each contact, as well as some notes.
Hope that helps..
