Getting contacts from sim card to computer

I am using a Nokia 8801 and would like to back up my contacts into my Outlook, but I can't seem to figure out a way to do it without buying a USB sim card reader. My laptop doesn't seem to like connecting via Bluetooth so that option is out. Is there any way to do it "over-the-air", such as sending the contacts to my email or something? Thanks

You could try a SyncML service like Zyb.com

Whats wrong with Bluetooth? Did you install the Nokia phone suite?

The Bluetooth on my laptop detects my phone and when I hit connect and click accept on the phone, it will say connected. Then about 4-5 seconds later, the phone will just flash a message saying disconnected. No idea why it happens.

I had tried this a few months ago with Nokia phone suite and kept getting the same issue with the phone. I had even gotten the phone replaced from T-mobile for unrelated issues and this problem is still happening on the new one. I guess it's more of a phone issue than a laptop one at this point...
