Contacts from Gmail - too many!

[Nonie3234]

So - when I got my new phone yesterday, I set it up with the Gmail account I've had for MANY years. As you probably know - anytime you hit reply, reply all or forward - ALL of those addresses are added to your "contacts". I never paid much attention to it until now, because NOW I have 955 contacts in my phone. OMG! I don't even know half of these people!

Also - the Verizon guy was unable to transfer my REAL contacts (people I actually call and receive calls from) from my Blackberry Storm.

So - do you have any suggestions how I can get rid of my Gmail contacts? I am tempted to just delete them all and start from scratch. There doesn't seem to be an option to NOT sync the Gmail contacts.

Also - can anyone think of a clever way to move my BB contacts to the Eris?

Thanks!
