Normal. It will idle higher if the heat or a/c is on. Around 800rpm.

Normal. Also idles higher if lights are on. It's a Toyota thing, my mom's Camry does the same thing.

Mine idles too high, around 1000 rpm, sometimes dips to 800 with A/C off. Is there no way to adjust it?

Mine is pretty similar. It starts at about 1000 then drops to around 750ish.
