I recommend to copy them all to your gmail account and let them sync. You will never lose them again if you do it this way.
To import them from SIM you do the following, open contacts app => push menu button => import/export contacts => import from sim card, and then choose your gmail account. Make sure contacts synchronisation is ticked in synchronisation settings.
