Some of the features are "zoomable" such as the Safari web browser, and they will be easy for you to read. I suggest playing with one for a few minutes to evaluate the rest.

I have over a thousand contacts but have not found a way to categorize them. There's also no way to search them.

No, if you require Java, my understanding is that it will not work.

Yes, you can specify what syncs.
