Haha, I was just trying to figure this out yesterday, but didn't put too much effort. I just know that if you click on Backup again, there is an option to restore the backup.

:)
i did see that there is an option to restore it.but if my laptop OS crashes. i dont take a full OS backup :)
so i need the location on the laptop where the fone contacts are stored so that i can back them up else where ... it wud hardly be more than 500kb... i can keep them safely in my gmail box
