PSION MX5 CDB file conversion

I am thinking about replacing my Psion MX5 with a more modern PDA.

However before I do so I need to backup my Contacts.cdb file on to my PC in a format (XL, string file..) which I can later upload to a new PDA.

I have tried using the PSIWIN 2.3 converter on Contacts.cdb but to no avail.

Within my Psion I then converted Contacts.cdb to Contacts.VCF which I backed up to my PC. However, once again, The PSIWIN 2.3 convertor would do nothing with this file.

I would appreciate any advice on this problem.

Also if anyone has recently migrated from the Psion MX5 to a modern PDA I would be grateful for advice on a suitable make and model, especially one that would accept a transfer of files from the MX5.

Thanks
