Hey guys, anyone knows why Ovi stopped Contact Syncing? And now that they stopped, which service are we supposed to use to replace Ovi Sync?

I don't have any idea why/if Ovi stopped contact sync, but I know that you can use Google Contacts to sync with cloud. Afaik It's very useful and reliable.

Just set a MfE account on your N9 and start using it

The service still works fine, just they've taken away the web frontend.
I guess because relatively few people used it compared to the effort it took to keep it running.
But backup/cross-nokia-sync is still there and working great.

Looks very interesting, but I'm not sure I want a third party service to have access to my entire contact list across multiple networks.
