newbie, while I've done lots of reading about all things to do with iPad2 setup

[211ssw]

My main curiosity after hours of reading, is trying to determine the most effective method for moving contacts from Outlook to the iPad2 and this topic offers many methods. I need to hear from some people who have done it and can tell me where the problems develop so that when I do it, it's problem-free. This is currently my #1 next step if I'm convinced about method. Knowing about 3 or 4 methods isn't enough. I am searching for person who is experienced and states with authority with my circumstances what method is best & problem-free.

Open Outlook, select all your contacts, and export them as a vCard file. Now you have a backup, and you can be less paranoid about picking a guaranteed trouble free method; which I doubt anyone here would be willing to commit to.

You can do pretty much the same thing with Calendars, only a .ics file.
