I've been able on multiple occasions to get about that many contacts into
the Newton via NewtSync. I never bothered tryingto Sync, as I feared
corruption of my Address Book file, so I just modify things on the computer.
The key for me was deleting all notes over a few words. There is a supposed
100character limit on notes in the Address Book, but my experience has been
that even shorter notes can hinder syncing. However, I don't remember if
NewtSync crashed or just quit--maybe both. I recommend going through your
notes in your Address Book, and deleting them, or at least notes over a
couple lines.
