Answers:
Go to your local rental store and get a chipping hammer with a chisel bit. This will make the job go much faster.
Here are two good sites to answer your question. One uses a glass cutter to help weaken the tile for removal.
I imagine you want to remove all the old cement or your tile may not set correctly.
Take the drywall off. Right down to the studs. Since you are retiling, you don't have to worry about having a perfect drywall job when you put the new pieces up.
