So I spent all night hand typing out all my contacts and finally I decided to hot sync it with my outlook and it errored out and now it erased all my contacts!

Wait, you did it all on the device, and the stuff from the PC wiped it? OUCH

This happened to me when I first got my 6800. I hadn't changed the setting in my phone's Active Sync setting that said if there is a difference between the device(phone) and the computer, to keep the information on the phone and update the computer.

Don't know if this is what caused your problem or not

Yeah that real sucks. You should have used pimbackup. It is a wonderful tool that will save you from things like that

I'll just re-enter them and back them up with the program.
