I think you have to do a lot of fettling saving files off and loading using some thing on the android side.

Go through the sms and get the 3 useful bits of info from them, update your address book with people's numbers and forget about the rest?

There is an app for that.

Smooth sync is really good for synchronisation of iCloud calendars and contacts if you have a good iCloud/me.com email you want to keep using or if you also have an iPad.

Depending on which android you get they have data transfer apps which are handy.

As above though, how many SMS do you really want to keep?
