Hey all, is there a way to back up contacts on gmail without using outlook? I plan to move on to android and my usb doesnt work on my new win7 comp. Thanks

Is your usb port broken because I know my phone syncs with win 7

Which Android are you getting? The Hero will sync to Outlook so you can move them just by syncing your Touch Pro to Outlook one last time. As for the Moment I don't think there is Outlook support but I would imagine there would be some way to get it on there, even if it is using the Cellbrite machine at the Sprint Store.

Like I said, using Google's exchange server through Activesync, it will allow you to sync with Google Contacts. Then when you set up your Google account on Android, it will already be there and sync. I did it on my Touch Pro, and when I ran Android on it the first time, it automatically downloaded my contacts
