I have a iPhone 3GS and all my contacts are on my phone both personal and business. I need to transfer all of those to my PC so I can transfer them into my new iPad2. However I'm not able to do so, it does not give me the option of transferring my contacts from my iPhone to the PC??? Why???

Because iDevice syncing is one-way - computer to iDevice. There are third-party utilities for transferring data from an iDevice to the computer. Look for them at MacUpdate and CNet Downloads.
One option I found is to email the contacts to yourself individually. It takes a while, so it depends on how many you're talking about, but you can back up contacts to Gmail or anything else that will take a vcard.
