Ok... I have a 3gs w/ latest os/firmware on it. Gonna get a 4 for $1... but only 'cause I'm tired of having to reboot my current phone frequently, and I'd like the flash for the camera.

I don't do Windows or Mac computers, but do have one Windows 7 desktop that is "mine" (well, works, and I don't use it for anything really).

All I care about is saving my contacts... I only use my phone to make calls, send texts, and browse the web a little - no other apps, games, integration with Facebook, etc. I've plugged the phone in, synched it, but I can't see contacts anywhere in iTunes on the windows machine.

Is this the right way to do it? I've only got 30 or so contacts in my phone, would I be better off just starting wtih a new blank iPhone 4 (not the 4s, not the new 5) and just manually reentering my contacts?
