do you have that information on a computer someplace? the easiest way
is to let the iphone sync all your contacts. you can also import them
from a sim card (and then sync to the computer).

yes, but it's locked to at&t.

you heard wrong. the iphones come with as much as 32 gig of memory
built-in, so there's not much of a need to mess with cards.

the 3gs is quite a bit faster and more capable than the 3g. the iphone
3g is last year's model, which is why it's cheaper.

it probably would be a good idea. another option is look into one of
the many apps that send/receive sms messages for free.

iphones are required to have a data plan which covers all data usage
and it's unlimited.

i would suggest going to an apple store, especially with questions.
