Coming from a Treo 650 myself, yes, I thought that the contacts information are properly mapped to the correct fields in the BB. The only thing missing is an option for two addresses of a contact and you'll end up dropping the second address of the contact.
Palm Desktop (for the Mac) will sync your LD contacts with your Mac with no problems (but note about the 50+ you currenlty have since during the sync those 50+ might get duplicated). Once that's done, PocketMac will bring all those contacts to your BB. If something goes wrong, you still have a backup of your contacts on your PC anyway.
My BB is only 5 days old so I'm also new to the BB world. ;)

Are you saying now that I should figure out how to get MS to sync with my Address Book (i.e. moves names etc from my LD to my AdddressBook) and then have PocketMac use it (Addressbook) to upload to the BB?
How faithful with the transfer be? Will it place names, numbers etc in the right field on the BB? Reading threads here it seems to be a somewhat hit and miss venture and sometimes the info disapppears??
Thanks for all your help as I begin to navigate these unfamiliar waters.
