Is Nokia PC Suite 4 the best way to backup my 3360 phone book to a PC?
Also, what's the best way to connect the 3360 to the PC - cable or IR, and
where can I buy that equipment?
Thanks for any advice.

Its works ;-)

The 3360 uses IrDA--there is no cable.

I have a laptop with an IrDA interface, but if you don't have that
there are USB/IrDA adapters out there. Fry's has one for "free" (after
rebate).

FYI, the Nokia "Content Copier" is rather quirky in connecting to the
3360, at least in my case it is. It only connects when waiting for a
connection and the phone is pointed at the IrDA receiver. If the
program is started with an existing connection it doesn't see the
phone.

I've recently purchased the U3-IRDA for my Nokia 3360. I've been using PC
Suite 4.0 with it and the only problem I had was that I had to slow the
connection speed so PC Suite would recognize my phone.

Are you aware that the 3360 is a TDMA phone and does not have a SIM?
