Iphone Auto Sync with Laptop
Hi,
My boss has given me a task to find an app that he can have on his iphone 4 that when he is in the vicinity of his laptop it will automatically sync to his iphone and backup all his contacts via bluetooth!
Now, I don't even have a smart phone let alone a iphone 4, so can anyone advise if this is possible. Apparently his son has said his does it!
Any help is greatly appreciated.

It will be possible if he is jailbroaken, but not as stock as apps cannot run fully in the background.
just tell your boss to either use gmail to sync his contacts to the cloud and then back down to the computer.
or
wait until autum when iOS5 and iCloud comes out, iOS5 supports wifi sync when charging and iCloud will sync your contacts to the cloud and then back down to the computer, keeping them all in sync in the same way gmail can do now.0 -

Wow, that's a good answer, will pass that on but I know he'll just be confused with it!!
Keep telling him he should just give me the iphone and go back to his old Motorola!
Thanks for your help
