[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] Adventures in Syncing

[Curt Kay]

I have the Samsung i730 as well and every time I sync with MS/WM, it  
syncs my contacts, the decides to erase all my contacts on my phone.  
I think it hates me, or it's jealous of my contacts. Luckily, they  
are all on my mac, so I only have to bluetooth each contact  
individually back to my phone, which only takes about an hour... gah,  
someone please fix this issue.
