    Get all your contacts as Google contacts, export them as csv and import them into gmail on your pc. You can then edit and merge them on your pc and they'll sync with your phone

    Can you not just do that via Outlook?

    My advice is to just use the crap out of it for a week. Get used to sense, play with the features, decide what you like/dont like. If there is something you don't like, chances are with Android that there's several ways to remedy it

    Have a search through the market, its all broken into categories so you should be able to find plenty of apps that are useful to you. Also check the must have apps thread here, its always good for a few ideas
