Hi, I just bought the iPhone and its unlocked to work with Tmobile

The SIM card I'm using has many contact #'s and I would like to import them to my iphone contact list?

How can I do this?

Thanks

You are not going to be able to do it onthe iphone itself that I am aware off.

Here is how I got the contacts from my blackberry to my iphone.

From the blackberry I emailed all the contacts (vcards) to myself.

I opened up my email client on my computer and saved the the contact from the email to a folder called contacts on my computer.

I opened Address book (or whatever app your itunes syncs with for contacts) and imported the contact from the folder I saved them to.

I synced the iPhone and they were all there.

While we're on the subject, I thought I'd mention that the iPhone SIM does not hold the contacts. This is was told to me by an Apple employee and then confirmed when I got a replacement iPhone and put my old SIM in the new phone, the contacts weren't there. Contacts and TXT mesages are stored on the iphone in private/var/root/Library.

That might be so, but I'm using Tmobile SIM...

I hope I can get all the contact in there.
