Yes, BlackBerry Desktop Manager. You need one of the later versions. You can donwload the latest at BlackBerry

I used the desktop manager to import from Palm Desktop directly to the Blackberry. It worked, but it also inserted a long string of numbers/letters as a note on every entry....contacts & calendar.

Better yet...set your treo to sync with outlook. Once contacts are in Outlook, they should move over to the BB much cleaner. At least it did for me.

This is what I did; no problems whatsoever...this was a Treo 650 GSM to a BB 7130c.

Just for fun, can I Bluetooth send contacts from my Palm Treo 650/700p to a Blackberry 7130e? I've tried and my Blackberry just resets itself. I have been able to pair them up successfully. That is, each device is now trusted to the other.

Thanks,
Alan G

I don't have nearly as many contacts as a lot of you guys I'm sure, but when I moved from my Treo 650 to a shiney new BB 7105t I took the opportunity to weed out my address book and manually re-enter the info. I did it for maybe 35 or 40 contacts. Amazing how much bogus or outdated info I found.
