1. Whats the weather like in Shanghai/Beijing in late March/early April??

It will be quite warm in late March/early April. About 10~20 degree according to my own experience in Shanghai. The temperature in Beijing might lower, with strong winds often.

2. I want to buy a mobile phone in either Shanghai/Beijing or Hong Kong,it must work in Australia,out of the above places Where will i get a great phone at a good price,and where???

Most of the mobile phones in China can also woke abroad. I suggest u to buy in Hong Kong. It will be cheaper! Of course, u can buy mobile phones in any other cities in China.

3.Best places to meet fellow travelers for beers,dinners,tours etc in Shanghai/Beijing????

There are many expats and tourists in Beijing/Shanghai. U can try:

In Beijing,you can buy it in Dazhong(大中)\Guomei(国美) and Suning(苏宁) Market,they have many multiple shops,lower price and good products.
