instead of maintaining digital wallet and syncing the blockchain, is it okay if I just use paper wallet now and later import the addresses in digital wallet? Will I get all my transactions to show up in digital wallet?

Yes that would work. In fact, depending on the wallet, you can even import the address (the public part) and see the transactions. Only when you want to send bitcoins would you need to import the private key.

Yes, that should work fine. When you import a key from a paper wallet, the computer wallet should scan the transaction history and pick up all previous transactions involving the newly added address.
A Note: if you use the "watch only" feature on a blockchain.info wallet the mobile app may return errors if you try to pay from "any address" since it can't access the coins in the watch-only address for spending. The simple solution is to pick an address with available coins for sending, or use the web-based interface. – CoinEnablers – 2013-12-04T18:52:28.867
