You need Lion/10.7.x on the Mac to be able to sync AB, or sync anything.
I have no idea what an iPad can do, but at 10.5.8 on the Mac, the only possible thing I can think of is to setup an iMap email account on the Mac & iPad, then in AB select all & export one big vCard, then email that vCard to the iPad.
iCloud Mail setup...

SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:

Thank, BDAqua, I'll look into going your iMap route (not acquainted with iMap yet) and I have no idea how to unpack a huge VCard. For the rest of this Sunday I'll wait for some more ideas via the Mac and iCloud forums. This dead end MacBookPro/OS 10.5.8 and AB database is so MS and unlike Apple, I'm disappointed and already getting exhausted. Cheers, Peter

Not sure on the iPad, but on the Mac it'd be Address Book>File>Import>vCards
