Cell StickWalt Mossberg over at The Wall Street Journal took a look at a new product aimed at eliminating the hassles of backing up and transferring cell phone contacts, the CellStick from Spark Technologies.

The CellStick is a USB thumb drive that allows you to backup cell phone contacts from 70 phones by LG, Motorola, or Samsung. The optional included PC software allows you to update and modify contacts from the ease of your PC, then transfer your updated contact information, via the CellStick, to your cell phone. You can also use it to transfer contact information from one phone to another.

Features:

  • Backup your phonebook contacts
  • One step, push button design
  • CellStick Central software application using your PC (Windows 98SE, 2000, ME, XP)
  • Compatible with LG, Samsung and Motorola handsets
  • Upgradeable to support new cell phones
  • USB Connector

If you upgrade to a new phone with a different connector you will need to purchase a corresponding CellStick and use the PC as a middle device.
