palm desktop addresses into Blackberry

I just purchased a Blackberry 6230 and I want to get the contacts out of my Palm Desktop and into my Blackberry.
Anyone have any ideas?

thanks

Karl

Use Outlook as your intermediary. Using the original Palm installation CD, install the "Palm conduits" for Outlook. Load all of your addresses from the Palm into Outlook.

Install the BB software, and load the BB from Outlook!

That would work if my palm was still working. The palm I have is dead. I just have all the contacts in the Palm desktop.
I need a way to get the contacts from the Palm Desktop software into the palm.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Have you looked into running the Palm Desktop software and seeing if there is a way to export the data into some format that Outlook can import?

may be worth borrowing a Palm, or even buying an old one to use as a conduit... they are pretty cheap. I don't think there is an easy way to do this other than the way described. It would end up being more money and expense probably to do that.

Other than that, try looking at Intellisync and the other similar products to see if they can do it, but I don't think they can.
