How bad ;-(

That's one of the reasons I avoid storing contacts on the phone or 
phone's SD card and use the SIM. While SIM memory is very limited and 
contacts cannot exceed of ~250 (at least with the 128 KiB SIM card it 
provides my carrier) I still can transfer the contacts from the SIM to 
any smart|mobile phone without any hitch.

JFYI, I found two articles that you may find useful to make additional 
tests:

Sync Nokia E72 with Linux tools
http://www.janerob.com/rob/e72-linux/e72-sync/

OBEX guide
https://libsyncml.opensync.org/wiki/obex-guide

It is always a good idea to test these sync tools with the latest 
available versions form upstream (if you don't want to install them in 
your system, using a LiveCD from whatever distribution and install it 
from there can be an option).
