My Personal Fix
I had this same dillemma, but here is how I solved it.
I kept the contacts, but when searching through all of them just change the mode from "Contacts: All Contacts" to "Contacts: Phone Contacts"
This will just have your phone contacts, but will still keep all the Facebook info. In "..:All Contacts" you will still have all your fb friends, which is good if you want to pose on a wall, or see a status. Really for just general creeping.
Also you can put all your contacts in using Google Contacts (off of gmail) and they will sync to your phone. Its much faster typing information in on the computer, than it is doing it in the phone itself. I think its the ultimate solution personally.
