Non-Running Other

I think I posted here before but can't find that post so I'm trying again.

I have a tremendous amount of phone numbers (most unlisted) and emails, addresses for my business. All these are kept, old school in a three ring binder but I need to upgrade for travel purposes.

Is there a product that would store all this information that would be small enough to carry in a brief case. (No, I have over 5-6,000 numbers that my cell phone could not hold. We're talking lots of info.)

Any help? Thanks in advance.

Is this a portable device sans carrying a laptop?

Any decent smartphone could hold that many numbers, so I don't see why that's a problem. So could a tablet like an iPad or Android tablet. Or a small laptop.

Since that's a lot of data entry, you could enter it on a desktop computer using a program like MS Outlook and then sync it with your phone either using the Outlook app or your phone's native contact app.

If you don't want to pay for Outlook/MS Office, Google Contacts could do the same things at a more basic level.

Nope. You could save an excel spreadsheet or goole sheet with the info on your phone or a tablet.

I'll look for something like this one time at Staples and the guy said it was only old school stuff that would work. He showed me on Amazon some Palm Pilots that worked on or with a stylus. I wonder if you could create your phone book with some apple from my laptop?

You could fit an entire operating system with persistence in a 32GB USB flash drive. 5000-6000 phone numbers is just text.
