Default contacts sync and supertooth3 work?

Hi was just wondering...
Is there a way to copy contacts from a sim card which is not active or from a different network... becasue when customers come in to port from optus to telstra, they want their contacts copied across naturaly...
Also was wondering if supertooth3 blutooth for the car works with the iphone

ST3 works with the iPhone, but I have not been able to copy the contacts from the iPhone to the ST3.

The Blueant ST3 works fine with the iPhone 3G, but the iPhone 3G lacks the capability to transfer contacts via bluetooth, and thus transferring the contacts across does not work, so you don't get the cool feature of the ST3 telling you who is calling, although it does read out the number.

I have been in communication with Blueant about this, and have also tried a few workarounds, such as syncing with another device and trying to share the phonebook, but this does not work, as the contacts are synced with the specific pairing of the device.

Until somebody develops an app (may not be within the terms of the SDK) to allow bluetooth transfer of contacts, then this feature of the ST3 will not work with the iPhone 3G.

(It does however work with the original iPhone, just not on software version 2.)

frustratingly, at least one iPhone owner running 2.1 claims to have made this work...
