    plug your iphone into the macbook pro usb port then sync the contact list.

    I have never done it but that's how you do it ithink.

    There should be an option in iTunes to sync to Address Book.

    If we're talking about OTA (over the air) sync, then I believe you have to be a Mobileme member. I've been never without the service since it launched (as .Mac) so I'm used to having it there.

    I am syncing my Nokia E71 and MBP contacts/calendar via iSync through BT. I would assume that it will be the same for the iPhone.

    iPhones sync to Apple Address Book automatically with the normal iTunes sync, as long as you have the option checked to do so in iTunes.
