It was a right cnut trying to do mine, I backed them up with the BB Desktop Manager, then saved the contacts as a separate file.

I don't *believe* you can matey (though i've not goolged it) - As above, connect it to a PC/BBDM then smack them out of the Bold to your Outlook contacts then do a factory reset on the device to make sure everything has been destroyed if you plan to sell the BB on. The iPhone will be able to import them from here.

You can, but it takes a while.

Open contacts list. Click the person. Options. Copy to Sim phone book.

Repeat for every cnut in your contact list.

Jeeebus people use a computer.

Adam, sync the blackberry to your computer using the blackberry desktop crap, then export the contact file to a windows address book or Microsoft Outlook file.

From there, when you get your iPhone (the only natural step) you can just import them to the phone from there. Done.

Tried the google sync thing?

I used that when I had my blackberry and my contacts were always kept in my google apps account which displayed in my outlook too.

I got a new phone on friday and they all transfered over fine

Google Sync works a treat and you can set it up on the iPhone as a Microsoft Exchange server so it will download the contacts again for you. Google Mails website gives you all the details on the iPhone thing.
