Connect your UIQ device to the worldwide standard of contact data exchange! SmartphoneWare's Best vCard application provides easy and foolproof import/export of your contacts to vCard and CVS files (platform-independent format for exchanging contacts information).
What is a vCard?
A vCard automates the exchange of personal information typically found on a traditional business card. vCard is used in applications such as Internet mail, voice mail, Web browsers, telephone applications, call centers, video conferencing, PIMs (Personal Information Managers), PDAs (Personal Data Assistants), pagers, fax, office equipment, and smart cards. vCard information goes way beyond the simple text and includes elements like pictures, company logos, live Web addresses, and so on.
What is a CVS?
CVS files have format of a simple text file where information about exported fields and records is stored. All fields are divided by a special symbol (';' or ',' or tab symbol). All records are divided by a linefeed (CRLF). This format is also supported by all well-knows programs that use address books such as Outlook, The Bat etc.
