Hi!

I'm about to switch to a new iPhone (4G), but I wanna find out if I can still sync it with my iTunes (as it still has the info for my old iPhone 3Gs?

iTunes is quite capable of syncing multiple devices.
I sync 2 iPhones, iPad, 2 iPods on the same account.

If you want to set up your 4G exactly as the 3GS, make sure you backup your 3GS in iTunes.

Read through the restoring your iPhone... section.

iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software

And if I sync it as a new device, can I then import the information from some of my apps?? I mean here like the progress of Angry Birds or data from past months in my CashTrails app (keep track of my spending).

In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus.
