Default how do you make your contacts portable, ie memory stick

I spend alot of time on the road and may check my email from various clients
and hotel computers. How do you save your address book on a memory stick and
be able to use your contact list from other computers? Seems pretty basic to
me.....

Thanks for any help

And to add to what Vince asked, are they all the same version or at least
pre-2003 versions?

Then you will want to save your contacts to a pre-Outlook 2003 .pst version
for complete portability.

But not all? If that's the case, create a new PST in the Outlook 97-2002
format on the memory stick and right-click and drag your Contacts to it.
Close it in Outlook (right-clickClose) and close Outlook before removing
the stick. On the other PC, open the PST on the stick with
FileOpenOutlook Data File.

Are any of them using a non-Outlook client?
