So i understand this correctly, you have 2 sim cards, one is old one is new, you want the old one with all of your sim information on it to be on the new card or do you want it saved on the device?

I dont' think there's an option to copy from device to SIM card. There is one going the opposite way. Why don't you just backup the device using Desktop Manager and after you've wiped the device do a restore. I'm thinking that would be much easier.

If you store the contact info on the SIM card you would only get their name and number. If you do a backup and restore you'd maintain all of the other info like addres, email, IM, and so on.

Here is something you can try but will cost a couple dollars. I manage my phones here at my company and alot of the users like to store personal numbers on the SIM Card. This program will allow you to use your SIM just like a file and copy/delete/backup whatever you want to do. You also have to buy a USB SIM Card Reader.
