    IF both phones use microSD I'd go that way. Move everything over to the SD card, put the card in the other phone and move again.

    My BB Storm has a micro SD card.

    SD card should work for pics and audio files.
    Email should be saved on your email server.
    Google Sync for contacts.

    thanks.. and i learned that as long as number isn't changed, voicemail remains as long as u confirm it

    It's a memory card. You need to hook it up to a computer and copy the files you want to keep to the computer (this is assuming your old phone also has a SD card). Then you need to format it, install it in the new phone (this step is optional if your new phone came with a bigger card you don't need to do it). After that you need to place the files from the old phone (not the folder) in the appropriate folders.
    Different phones use different folder naming schemes, therefore if you just stick your old folders into the new it probably won't recognize your files.
    To put your SD card into the computer you may need a microSD adapter. Many times they come with the adapter.
