    Okay, not sure if anyone can answer this, but I'm struggling to find an answer.

    Currently I own a fairly old Nokia phone, which I liked but the infrared has finally given out on me, and I really need to replace the phone (it is beginning to fall apart).

    Now unfortunately due to the completely horrific way that mobile phone companies work in the US I only have limited choices on a new phone, none of which are a Nokia and none of which have infrared, does anyone know if you can use bluetooth on a phone to sync contacts/address book/etc with outlook? I'm looking basically for a smaller clamshell type of style phone, and I don't want one of these large PDA things that don't fit in your pocket and are rather to bulky.

    Unfortunately the sprint store near here seems to know NOTHING (about anything) so I'm hoping someone here knows, the alternative is does anyone know whether I could use SD cards to do similar stuff, I know some of the newer phones have SD cards (or Micro SD cards or Mini SD Cards) and I'm wondering if that could be used too.
