Receive a vCard via Bluetooth on the Sidekick LX

If someone sends you a vCard via Bluetooth, you will receive a balloon notification in the title bar, then a dialog will appear, asking if you want to accept the contact. If you select Accept sidekick2 - Animals, the vCard will be saved to your Address Book.
