Hey,

So as my title states I'm selling my iPhone and buying a BB Bold.

When going from one phone to another I usually just saved important texts and all my contacts to the sim card. Transfered sims and copied from sim to the new phone.

However, the iPhone doesn't allow saving info. to the sim card. So how can I transfer my contacts and important text messages to the Bold?

Cheers.

Please, anyone. I have someone interested in the phone and this is the only point holding up the sale.

Wouldn't this be a question for a Blackberry forum?

One solution. If you are using a Mac, sync your iPhone with your Mac (iCal, Address book, etc.). When you get your Blackberry, purchase The Missing Sync (http://www.markspace.com/products/blackberry/blackberry-sync-mac-software.html) and use that to sync the info from iCal and Address Book to your new Blackberry. I've used two versions (Blackberry and Windows Mobile) of The Missing Sync now for about a year, and haven't had any problems with either. I highly recommend this program.

I hope this helps.

Not really since the problem isn't with getting info onto the Blackberry, but getting info off the iPhone.

ucfgrad93, thanks a lot for your help. I appreciate it!
