I can answer questions about Palm OS, troubleshooting problems and advice on which models will best suit you. I am not able to do likewise for any PocketPC or Windows Mobile devices. Please keep in mind my deal with God - he/she doesn't answer questions about PDA's & I don't perform miracles

Experience
I own [and have owned ] Palm [now Palmone], Handspring, Sony Clie devices for about five years. Most, if not all, of what I know, I have learned through trial.

Education/Credentials
Associate degree and BFA in photography

Question
Brent:
I buying a new PDA phone. I want to upload my Contact/Note info from my Handspring Visor (9 years old). Some have said I should convert my PDA info into Outlook first. Any thoughts? I don't know much about, Palm vs Pocket PC vs Windows based systems.
THANKS

Answer
Hi Mike,

If it is a Palm product you should be able to recover the PRC (Palm File) for the contacts on your computer's hard drive Programs>Handspring>T>Backup add and install it.

I'm not really certain if these files are convertible to Pocket Pc files Blackberry/Rim files, but I believe everything now syncs with Outlook, so if it is there, you are good to go.
