Does anybody know if the tranfer will work for Outlook 2000? I've tried it and about 3/4ths came thru, but not all. Suggestions?

on 8/11/2008 If you're having trouble transferring your contacts from a Sprint phone to an iPhone, it turns out one of the guys at Wired Magazine just did a podcast about this-- he started with a Sprint phone and ended up going to SEVEN different stores-- various locations of Sprint, AT&T, the Apple Store, and Best Buy-- before he found someone who could transfer his contacts. I wish I had found this sooner, but if anyone might end up in the same boat, I'd suggest reading/watching this first: http://thehopkinsonreport.com/2008/08/07/episode-16-i%e2%80%99m-special-how-i-transferred-250-contacts-from-my-sprint-phone-to-my-iphone/#more-62
