Default Transfer Phone No. from SIM to GMail

Hi @ all

this is my first post here. Hooray!

I have recently purchased a Hero, so far everything is running nicely. I am using my old SIM-Card, on which all Phone Numbers are stored. The Numbers/Names are displayed and usable on the Hero as well as Google Mail Contacts (mostly email only), which I have edited online.

I am looking for a way to transfer/synchronize my SIM-numbers TO Google Mail, so I can merge Phone No. with the existing Contacts or at least use copy & paste to merge them. I simply do not want to type 200+ numbers into Google Mail Contacts manually. Google Mail synchronizes perfectly with the hero but not the "old" numbers from the SIM card.

Any ideas anyone?

Kind regards
Chris

Well, since there seems to be no other solution, I ended up installing the Nokia PC Suite, exporting my SIM-Contacts to Outlook Express, from there to GMail, sorting/merging them and then synchronization with the Hero. Long way round....but beats typing in a lot of Numbers.

wow, that was unnecessary!

In the people application, press menu and then import.

select google from the list and it will import all your SIM contact into the google group that will then be synched to your Gmail and then you can edit them there.

that's what it is supposed to do....of course, if you weren't getting the google option, then it was not unnecessary and i just look like an idiot!!
