Just out of interest, which other programs are compatible with the E90 for creating and storing contacts (names, phone numbers, email addresses, postal addresses) and sync'ing with the phone? I'm new to the E90 and don't use Outlook (or the awful Lotus Notes) as my mail program, so just wondering what the other options are before I spend an afternoon typing my previous phonebook into it.
Thanks!
You could do a lot worse than getting all your contacts imported into a GMail account then using GooSync to keep it all organised. GMail is free and GooSync will cost you a registration (to use the Contacts feature) but I think it's well worth it. Often overlooked is Nokia's PCSuite's Contacts app. Mobical is worth a look... http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/features/item/Who_needs_Outlook_Syncing_to_Mobicalnet.php
I'm sure there's loads more options that I'm not thinking of at the moment.

if Contact transfer work on E90 and i think it will work at least with external screen then u can make a copy of your contacts with its details on the memory card.
Mobical looks ideal, except they don't seem to offer it to the U.K. Boo.

I don't have time to look into it ATM but Steve Litchfield is UK based and he was able to use it when he did that review I linked to. Confused.

To follow up, after saying "we don't offer this to your country", they then sent me an email with my username and password. I logged in, entered my phone number, they sent me an SMS with the settings and it now appears I can use it! I'll report back on how it goes.
Since applying the settings from Mobical I can't use my E90 to check my Gmail account, but I hope that's just a transient network glitch on Gmail's part...
Sadly Mobical seems to have stopped sync'ing properly with my E90 - I can transfer my contacts _to_ the web database, but can't receive any updates from it, I just get "Server error."
Boo. Looked like a great idea. Shame they don't appear to have published any way to send them feedback...
Hi inigopete,
You can synchronise a compatible Nokia phone with the following PC PIM applications:
� Microsoft Outlook 2000, 2002, 2003, and 2007
� Microsoft Outlook Express / Windows Address Book
� Microsoft Windows Calendar and Contacts
� Lotus Notes 5.x, 6.x, 7.0 and 8.x
� Lotus Organizer 5.x and 6.x
Hope it may help you 😊
