A huge annoyance. One time the Nokia shop in Hong Kong unbeknownst to
me updated the software in my 6260 and I lost all addresses, etc., only
had names and phone numbers. Guess that's the benefit of the software
in that it could be downloaded to a computer, thence to a CD or thumb
drive as backup.

Also on the 6260 only one card's phone name and phone numbers can be
copied to the sim at a time, hence it's quite a tedious effort for such
a minimal amount of info!
