1) Sync data. I'm assuming that the nokia pc software can read contacts and calendar data if I sync my current phone to a clean version of Outlook. Now might also be a good time to clear out my contacts and delete duplicates and the deceased. If n900 cannot sync with Outlook - please let me know! Interesting question: I already have nokia pc suite running (for the n95) - will the n900 need a different version? And will they conflict?
Do a last major sync into OL; use the Import/Export funtion (under File) to make a backup of the entire Personal Folder (.pst) including all subfolders (which would grab calendar, contacts, etc.). Save to a USB memory key and your local PC for backup and a restore point.

Then clear out the unneeded contacts and setup PC Suite to sync them to the N900.
The newer version of PC Suite will overwrite the old one, that won't effect your data at all.
