I do want to sync all of my contacts. Or, if I had a massive amount and wanted to separate it from work or school, or business, or home, or personal, or all of the different types of things that I want to do, we can go ahead and choose selected groups. Now, this is also useful if you're going on a business trip, you may want to keep more business contacts in it than you normally would, or if you're going out of town, for different things. So, if you want to do selected groups, you simply would move that over here and select or deselect those, to customize it, we're going to go back to all contacts.
