    I've got a sim card data back-up gizmo. Never used it myself, as I get the geeks at work to save it for me periodically.
    We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box.”

    exactly what i was going to suggest BB (consider yourself a geek now lol)

    amante...........if it is just phone numbers/text messages you want to save, then as BB mentioned, buy a sim card back up/manager gadget.

    you can get them at pcworld type places

    Ah, no not a geek!! ;D

    I bought mine at Aldi or Lidl, can't remember which & it didn't cost much - certainly less than a tenner.

    Also, you could try:

    http://www.downseek.com/download/29286.asp

    These downloads may be ZIP files - if you don't have winzip you can download the free evaluation software. This is the USB driver software for connecting to your PC.

    Have fun!
