I was curious to find out if there was a free alternative to the ABC Amber BlackBerry Converter program. I tried the demo and it's a great program but I can't warrant a purchase since I would only need to use this maybe twice annually (if that). I was curious if there was a simplified freeware version that would perform a similar task (maybe w/o all the bells and whistles that the ABC Amber BlackBerry Converter has).

There's one called MagicBerry that you can find here:

New Blackberry IPD Reader

or here:

Mena Step Innovative Solutions - Magic Berry IPD Parser

I've had pretty decent results with it, but I haven't done much exporting.
