How to get all the junk across i want to move from powerbook to G5

When you first turn the powermac on, it'll ask if you want to copy everything over. All you'll need is a firewire cable, it'll walk you through starting up the ibook in "target disk mode" and copying everything. I've only used it once, but it worked flawlessly.

Is it worth partitioning the hard drive before playing as i am considering a second drive soonish

I suppose this is a matter of personal preference, but I'd say no. Archive and Install works well enough that you can usually "reformat" without reformating.

Whats the best way to keep e-mail etc synced between the two macs.

I beleive .mac has some provision for this, but I usualy just set one up to "leave mail on server for x number of days", and the other to "leave mail on server". However, this doesn't garantee that all mail will end up on both computers, just that one will have all of it, and one can check it when you'd like.

Enjoy the new purchase.
