For backup purposes, you may want to use function "Send whole
addressbook over bluetooth" and save incoming file in your computer (it
will be a huge .vcf formatted text file).
I don't think high-level synchronization is standardized, it will be
something Nokia proprietary. You could try comms/gnokii port which
should support Bluetooth on FreeBSD too.
