Is there any way to import contacts?

[nerys]

Also how do I have contacts on my phone that ARE NOT on google and DO NOT get synced to google.

although I do not have many contacts and I don't really distrust google I have no moral right or authority to go "giving" those numbers to google.

OK I got it to STOP deleting my contacts. open menu inside contacts click on accounts under "manage accounts" click your account there and turn off contacts sync.

now I can import my vcards and it does not delete them.

BOY was that annoying. why would it delete them instead of saying hey new one on the phone sync it the OTHER way "TO" g-mail. I am glad it did not but I am surprised it did not.

with default settings you could never "add" a new contact as it would delete it ??? strange behaviour.
