Default contacts app NO sync with gmail/facebook/outlook

I have an HTC Desire, and I'm unhappy with the way it (doesn't) sync my contacts.

Maybe this is a strange request, but I want a contacts app that doesn't sync with facebook/gmail/outlook. The ideal contacts app for me will just copy the contacts on my phone to an xml-file or something on my computer. If I can edit the raw info there it's a bonus.

The reason for this is that I want to keep my gmail contacts on gmail, my facebook contacts on facebook and my phonenumbers on my phone. And I wouldn't let Outlook anywhere near my phone. I like to keep things separated.
Maybe I'm stupid, but everytime I test a new sync option, it messes up my contacts. I just want a copy of the contactinfo I keep on my phone on my computer. Stupid simple.

Save them as phone contacts, not Gmail contacts on the phone. It won't sync. Whenever you create a new contact, it will just ask you where to save. Check the settings it may have been set to save in Gmail.

Then while in the settings, just turn off Facebook and Gmail contacts display in the contacts app.
