Exports contacts from a new-style Nokia 3310 phonebook.ib to VCF

This is a simple Python 3.x script that converts a phonebook.ib file, such as the one generated by a Nokia 3310 backup, to vCard.

Created and tested ad-hoc on a single sample file, your mileage may vary.

KUDOS! (Also, missing last name)

Holy shit man. This really came in handy for me. I have a Nokia 3310 3G with a broken screen but I had backed up my contacts on the sd card - this allowed me to grab all of them.

Only issue that I had was it looks like it picks up the whole name and the first name but not the last name. Just for reference.

Error I am getting
