    Can anyone tell me how many contacts is a realistic number for the Storm? I have approximately 7,000 that I could load on mine but am concerned about performance issues. Almost none of them have pictures and most have only basic contact info.

    I could just try it, but I have everything synced between Outlook, Gmail, and my Storm OTA so perfectly now that I would have to alter the sync to get it to work. (BTW, I would like to applaud GSyncIt for being the awesome link with Gmail).

    Also, I have noticed that my Storm becomes sluggish when the Gmail contact sync is going on. Does anyone have a clue if it would become more sluggish, or just sluggish for longer if syncing 7,000 contacts.

    Thank you!!!!

    You can easily hold 20 000 to 50 000 contacts. Here's a thread where Pete6 and I do the math...

    If I downloaded my company address book it would have 60K. I think my phone would kill me if I did that.

    I only have the people I work directly with and friends. That is around 70.

    Why would anyone (with a brain) sync an entire company BES? Common sense here, if you don't know/work with them on a regular basis, you don't need them. Just because you CAN doesn't mean you SHOULD.

    Id@t$. Oh Oh my Storm runs sooooo slow and I my memory is always way way down, boo hoo.
