Is contacts.cdb compatible with XDA?

Hi

I am about to get an XDA type device to trial and want to know the easiest way to transfer my phone book to this phone.

I have copied the contacts.cdb using flight mode, but will I be able to import this onto the XDA?

Thanks

Very unlikely, your best bet is if the XDA synchronises with Outlook (as it is MS based I imagine it can), then first sync your 7650 with Outlook contacts through PC Suite. Next sync the XDA with Outlook through whatever software comes with the phone.

No it is not compatible. You can use synchronization - or export it to XDA using Contacts Manager into csv/txt file.
