Help Any way to transfer my contacts/address book from AT&T to Verizon?

I just got my Droid X today, and while I haven't had much time to play with it, I'm loving it already :D

One thing I realized, however, is that it will be a pain to put every number from my old address book into the one on my DX. Is there any way I can do this without entering every single number manually?

I have a Motorola Karma QA1 on AT&T with all my numbers on it, and I want to get them on my Droid X.

Can I?
 
Well, I do have a gmail account, but only because I had to sign up for one for my DX

>_>

Would it work if I just manually put all of my contacts into my gmail account? It wouldn't be such an annoyance to do it on my computer. I just don't feel like doing it all on a virtual keyboard that I'm still getting used to.

Yes, any contacts you enter into your Gmail account on your computer will be synced to your X.

Do you have a Gmail account? If you do, then all your contacts in your Gmail account will automatically sync to your X when you log in.

Other than that, you would have to somehow export your contacts out as a .csv file and then import it into Gmail on your computer.

There are USB software that usually converts the phone contact list to a CSV. Verizon has the software and is usually well versed on converting the contact listing for you. Depending of course on the store and rep that's assisting you.
