I am tired of smart phones. Can I sync my gmail contacts with a regular verizon flip phone?

I have had a smartphone since before most people even knew what they were. Since 2002 I have been using a blackberry or a treo, and more recently a droid.

I am done. I am sick of the battery life, I am sick of the higher bills, I am sick of everything.

I decided the only reason I still use an android is because it backs up my texts to gmail, and it syncs my contacts with gmail.So if I should break my phone and need a new one, (happens all the time) I will be able to get the contacts easily.

I am with Verizon, and I am satisfied with the service. However, I just want an old fashond flip phone.

Is there a way to sync my contacts with gmail? I want the sync to be over the air.

If I can back my texts up, that would be awesome, but it is not a deal breaker.

Plus, I have decided that texting has ruined my love life. I dont want it to be easy to send texts.
