Need Contacts Backup software that can be used off desktop PC?

Can anyone recommend a good freeware contacts backup program for my HTC 6900 that I can use off the desktop that works with WM 6.1 Professional?

I was looking at PIM Backup 2.8 but it does not state that it is compatible with WM 6.1 only WM 2003/2005.
Also was NS Contacts Backup and NS Contacts (Editor) by Nyxbull Software but the vendor has not replied to emails.

I have made a copy of the pim.vol file to the storage card which should suffice in case of a crash, or hard reset, but I would like a program to edit the contacts, and print out a hard copy list abit more efficiently than using the phone itself.

Please keep it simple. I am still learning the PPC, and finally learned how to answer the phone calls. =D> Jokin.

Thank you.

Welcome to Geekdom! Actually PIM Backup is compatible w/ WM6. Look here..http://www.dotfred.net/

Keep in mind that this only backs up your PIM data. I would recommend you getting a comprehensive backup app that will b/u your entire phone. Two good ones are SPB Backup or Resco Backup. The $25-30 price tag is minimal compared to the aggravation you'll experience if you have to hard reset and reload all of your apps.

geekcop,
Thanks for the help. At this time, the Contacts (pim) are the only entries that I need to backup. All other data is backed up prior to syncing it over to the device. I agree that the Pay app will do a more complete job.
