Google Sync for Symbian S40

I have always been looking for an efficient and generic way of backing up my mobile contacts, so that when I switch mobile I don't have to manage the contacts again and again...

I am currently using Nokia 6500, with Symbian S40 operating system, it comes with a great backup software, but I don't really like it because..
  1. You need to install software on PC, its fat, and I only need to use tiny little bit of it
  2. For proper back up, its only compatible with Nokia phones...
  3. It allows you to export contact to address book format, but it have trouble exporting properly if your contact has multiple phones
Due to all the above reason, last time I backed up my contact was almost 2 years ago... Its about time to do another backup!!

I don't want to install the software again, so I went to look for some web solution and heres what I found!

Google Sync for Nokia 6300

Isn't that perfect to have your contacts backed up online!? It is even smart enough to merge any existing contacts on your gmail account.

It only take about 5min to complete the whole process, so why not have your mobile backed up now?

If your phone is using different OS, maybe you can try to look for related information here.
