Yes... if you have a Blackberry, Treo or HTC phone, run Windows and don't mind keeping your data on Plaxo's servers, Plaxo is indeed a good solution.

Still... I'm fairly certain that most GSM phones can't make the data call to the Plaxo servers _while_ they are on a voice call with someone else.

The "vCard bursting" concept moves data directly from one phone to another without third party involvement. And it does is as part of the "session" created when you're talking with someone else. i.e. - you don't have to hang up the phone to receive burst vCards.

Subject: Idea: up-to-date business card

If I receive a business card it sometimes happens I try to call a year later. At that point the person has a new phone number and I will have
to look that up. I would much rather receive an intelligent business
card that was always up to date.

To secure anonymity we will need a protocol that will allow me to get
the new information without everyone knowing I got that. It will be OK
if the original person is informed. Maybe using some kind of web of
trust?

/Ole
