For this version there are the following changes:
+ contacts can be exported as vCard files
+ cosmetic changes in the user interface
+ improved usability
- fixed issue which made it impossible to purchase a smart card reader with a discount

Now, using SIM Manager 2, it's possible to export the contacts as vCard files, improving the mobility of your address book in between your SIM card and various e-mail clients and other software as well.

To save any contact to vCard, simply select the entry, go to Edit / Save as vCard.

Save to any directory of your choice and you're done.

Further more, you will notice an appealing cosmetic improvement of the software's interface.

Also, one major bug-fix has been done.
It has been reported that certain user's had no feedback after clicking the "Buy" button from within the software. Rendering the user unable to purchase the SIM Reader with a discount.

For this version, the developers at Dekart have included:

+ added support for synchronizing contacts with Yahoo! Contacts
+ CSV files can be imported to Nextel phonebooks as an option
+ user-friendly notifications for cases in which
* the SIM card contains no data
* no readers are found in the system
+ sorting was possible only by name or by phone, now sorting by all columns is supported

Synchronizing with Yahoo! Contacts

This new feature, as in the case of the Google Contacts, will allow you to download and upload contacts from your Yahoo! account to your SIM card.

In order to get this done, click the newly added button in the File menu.

Next, you will be asked to log in to your Yahoo! account, and agree on letting SIM Manager extract the contacts information

Copy the code that you are provided by Yahoo! in the Yahoo! verifier window of SIM Manager 2.

And you are done, now you have all the contact information from your Yahoo account, which you can easily store on your SIM Card.

The inverse operation is performed as easy as the previous mentioned one. In the phonebook, select the contacts you would like to upload to your Yahoo! account, right-click and choose "Send to Yahoo!".

The rest of the steps are analogue to the ones mentioned before.

CSV imported to Nextel

As you may know, the Nextel card have a different construction than the usual SIM or USIM cards, so importing CSV files to Nextel was a bit tricky.
Now the developers at Dekart have added a new feature that eases up the process and renders the import successful. All you need is to check the box next to "Import CSV to Nextel phonebook" in Options / Settings...

Notification boxes

In SIM Manager 2.9 has been added a new feature, that notifies that there is no SIM card reader connected to the PC.

This box will appear in case of a non-PC/SC compliant reader being connected also, as you remember, that SIM Manager works only with PC/SC compliant SIM card readers.
Also, a notification box for the cases where there is no information to be read from the SIM card.
