The problem, as you say, is how to get them into the Blackjack. Technically,
only _syncing_ with Outlook is supported, but they can also be transferred
by e-mail or "beamed" (sent via Bluetooth) to the device individually. (A
pain if you're doing 500 of them!)
The OP seems unsure how the first few got transferred (except that it was
part of the initial setup when loading the included CD.) I'm not aware of
any Microsoft-supplied utility for syncing WinMail Contacts.
What the OP COULD do, if i's a one time or temporary thing, is install the
Outlook 2007 60-day trial included on the CD, import the Mail Contacts to
Outlook (he'll be asked during the setup) then sync the (now) Outlook
Contacts to the device.
If his Contact list remains relatively stable, he can let the trial expire
in 60-days, and transfer any new Contacts individually via BT, e-mail or
SMS in the future. |
