Contact management service that works across all platforms

[rdst_1]

Hi peeps,

So i have been jumping from one phone to another in the last couple of weeks and the only gripe has been that contacts don't sync very well, when i change paltforms.

I had all my contacts synced to gmail coz i was using Android, but then when i shifted to iPhone the contacts didn't get imported properly.

Now i am thinking of giving a try to HP webos(Pre3) and Symbian Belle(N8).

So can anyone suggest me the best way possible to backup my contacts in such a way that they appear in exactly the same manner across paltforms.

For ex - in gmail i had stored my friends mobile nos according to the city they were in, but when i imported them to iPhone, it wasn't showing phone numbers at all and those who had 1 no as mobile and not the city name that i had assigned to it.

Is there any windows software or do outlook contacts show up on phones in exactly the same way across all platforms.

I am ready to give 1 whole day to setting up my contacts manually on my computer, if they can then be imported to phones with exactly the same descriptions across all platforms, whether it is Android, Symbian, WP or iOS.

Thats weird. When I migrated from Symbian to iPhone I managed to import all my contacts without any hassle. I then used an app (don't remember the name atm) that exported all these contacts to Excel. A little bit of formatting and playing around and I finally uploaded these contacts to Google which synced perfectly with the iPhone, Dell XCD35, my Note and also my BB Curve using GoogleSync.

The whole beauty with GoogleSync for me now is that any contacts saved on my Note are synced almost instantaneously to my BlackBerry and vice-versa .
