So is there a way to pre enter my contacts into itues so when my phone gets here i can just sync it and have all my contacts?

iTunes itself does not have an address book. It is a conduit to sync to an existing address book on a Mac, or Outlook/other mail programs on Windows. If you have everything in one of those, you can sync to an iPhone...

Or, if you have VZW's back-up assistant, you can download what's on your current phone to the BUA web site, then fetch a CSV file from that, and import the CSV file into Outlook, or other email program/address book that iTunes will sync with.

You can also go through the Gmail web site and export your contacts to a CSV file, or V-card file to import into another mail/address app and sync via iTunes.

Do you mean e-mail contacts or all contacts in general?

all my contacts, but gmail syncs that if you set it up right.

The stores are pushing people to the Verizon backup software
If you have andriod you contacts should already be in you google account online. You just have to set up iTunes to sync with gmail

I set up our Address Book on the MacBook this weekend. It worked great.

I had to download the BB Software, as we always used our PC before. I was able to import my husbands & I's contacts, edit a few and save to different "groups". I synced them onto the iPad & iPod Touch to make sure everything would work right. I have a single user MobileMe account and was able to sync our iCal & Address Book w/ the iMac. I didn't try, but I'm hoping there's a way to sync these to "the cloud" of MobileMe, specifically the calendar to set bill reminders and have the updated on all iDevices. Guess I need to research that more.
