Ever left your phone in a cab? Dropped it? Took it for a swim? The only thing more annoying than having to replace it is reentering your contacts. Never again. Now you can plug in the Backup-Pal, press the button, and the device will store up to 1,000 contacts on its 128 megabytes of memory. Since the way phones store contacts is nearly universal, the Pal can reload your digits into a phone of a different brand or carrier, or to your computer. $40–$50; backuppal.com
