I’ve been using a Windows Mobile phone, so most of my contacts were all on MS Outlook 2007, so importing contacts to the new Nexus One was a complete breeze.

Here’s how to do it:

Step 1

• Open Outlook and click on your contacts
• Go to File > Import and Export > Select Export to a file – Next
• Select Comma Separated Values (Windows) – Next
• Select Contacts – Next
• Save the file in a known location – Next
• Click on ‘Map Custom Fields’ and make sure Default Maps are set
• Click Finish

Step 2

• Log Into your Gmail account
• Click Contacts in the left menu
• Click Import in the top right
• Choose file and select the .csv file you just saved (add them to a group if you want)
• Click Import
• Your contacts will be imported into your Gmail account

Step 3

• On your Nexus make sure you have connected your Gmail account
• Go to contacts > Menu > Accounts
• Select your Gmail account > Menu > Sync Now
• Your new contacts will be imported – Any duplicates should be merged.

It took me less than a minute to sync all my contacts (over 300 contacts) & if you have Facebook sync turned on, friend’s photos will all appear alongside your contacts.
