Dazed and Confused

Please help me!

A. Facts
1. I have Outlook at work (PC/MS environnment) I have well over 1,000 contacts.
2. I am buying a iMac for home and will sync my itune music library on my home Mac.
3. I will buy an iPhone 3GS.
4. I would like to sync my outlook and calendar on the iPhone with the information from my MS PC at work.
5. I would like to sync my musick library on the same iPhone with the music library on my home Mac.

B. Questions

1. Is it possible to have both A.4 and A.5 on the same iPhone?
2. If the answer to B.1 is "no", then can I use my office blackberry, sync my outlook and calendar contacts from my blackberry on my home Mac, so that I can put both the music library and contacts/calendar on the iPhone?
3. If the answer to B.2 is also "no", do you have another workable solution given by objective in B.1?

Thanks!

You can sync music at home and contacts at work. You just tell iTunes what you want to sync.

Yes, see this link, but I haven't ever done it. I assume it works.

Also, according to the one I linked:

If you just want to sync PIM (Contacts/Calenders etc) on one machine and media on another there’s a simpler way. On the computer you want to sync contacts/calendar with select only these items and perform a sync. Now, on the second machine enable Music/Photos/Etc and perform a second sync. You will be warned the media library will be deleted, but as there’s no media this is fine
