Happy Mothers Day

Yay! Happy Mothers Day!

But somehow, we didn’t know this until we opened up our Facebook account where all the wall post were sending out Mothers Day messages. Tsk tsk tsk,… I didn’t get my wife anything, but as soon as I realised this, I rushed over and gave her a kiss and wished her Happy Mothers Day!

Main reason we were caught unaware about today’s Mothers Day,.. is because Mothers Day’s celebrated on 22 December in Indonesia. I was certain that I already wished my wife that time. And it appears that some countries also celebrated their Mothers Day on a different date than today.

With the lack of exposure to foreign press,  international Mothers Day was hardly mentioned in our media. The only resemblance of a mothers day celebration was Hari Kartini which was celebrated recently.

Anyway, it was a bit of slack on my part. Please forgive me. (I know my gracious wife did…..did you?)

And on this note, here’s a sincere wish to all mothers… Happy Mothers Day!

Transfering Contacts from Nokia E71 to my Javelin Curve 8900

Okay, I have decided to post this up to help my fellow gadget friends who are wondering if they can transfer all your contact on your Nokia E71 to BlackBerry Javelin Curve 8900.

This is a legitimate concern because over time, you will have built a massive contact list, and losing it because you wanted to change your device,… is unacceptable. And manually inputting a list of more than 400 contacts,….is a nightmare.

Here’s how I did it.

You need 3 components: 1) Nokia PC Suite, 2) Microsoft Outlook, 3) Blackberry Desktop Manager

Except for Microsoft Outlook, the installation CD for 1) & 2) came in the box with your device. Have all three programs installed first. Note: My Outlook version is 2003.

Step 1) Synchronize/transfer your Nokia E71 contacts to Microsoft Outlook via PC Suite.

Step 2) Synchronize/transfer your Microsoft Outlook contacts to your Blackberry via BB desktop Manager

THAT’S IT! It took me about 10 minutes to do so, and I did not lose any contact during transfer.

It should also be noted that I used data cable instead of Bluetooth as Bluetooth transfer via BB has always been a problem, and its well documented by RIM.

Now finally, I have the reassurance that I did not lose my contact, and at the same time enjoying my new Javelin Curve 8900.

To BB,…or not to BB? Oh yeah,…. To BB it is!

Cheers
