transfer contacts from BB to iphone

Wondering if theres any way i can save all my contacts from my BB contact list onto the sim card?

Ive been playing with the BB for awhile trying to figure it out, but there doesnt seem to be a way to do it?

according to the site- in the link provided, do i need to save all my contacts onto my sim in order to keep all my contacts on the iphone?
http://www.itworld.com/mobile-amp-wi...ontacts-iphone

everywhere i search, this seems to be the only way in doing it.

Can anyone help? im pretty stuck on this one.


ps, im using a mac and i currently dont have BB desktop manager installed. would i be able to install desktop manager onto my mac, and make the above concept work?
i currently have the blackberry 8900 if it makes any difference.


Any help is appreciated

Does the iPhone have google sync? If so, sync on the berry, then sync that with the iphone.

Problem solved.

just backup your BB contacts to Outlook on your computer.
You can do it in a few minute via Desktop Manager..
Once you have it on Outlook, then you can transfer it from Outlook to Iphone.

THe whole process took about 5 minutes or so...fairly quick

I believe these are the instructions I followed:

yes desktop manager will work. but google sync is the easiest way if you have a data plan
takes less than 5 minutes from installing to syncing your contacts
