They are stored in a data base file. It's not something you can look at from your PC normally.

I believe they are in the pimvol file.

Yes that should work but it might be easier and better to use this program. http://www.dotfred.net/

Then you need to tell the program to backup the files.

You could also sync the contacts to the PC then set a new sync relationship with your "fresh" ppc.

Assuming you are using outlook of course.
