I agree that nothing is quite like that.. but that is becoming antiquated. Assuming you follow a "normal" upgrade model.. almost all smart phones now-a-days sync to some service or another - google being a very popular one.

So if you go from Android, to the N900, for example (which is what i hope to be doing).. you're contacts are all stored in google, not your SIM.. much less likely to be broken or lost there too.. (standard privacy concerns input here)..

Now.. if you go from an android phone back to a 90's flip phone.. then yeah - no more contacts.
