        I was at the ATT device repair center yesterday and they said I may need a new phone (trying a new battery first) - I ask them if they could put the settings and software on my old phone on hte new one - no way to do that was the answer - WOW - unbelieveably lame. Back to the iPhone if this is not fixed soon. I am actually shocked that MSFT would not have this handled.

        Definitely needed. Just got a new phone, and as happy as I am about that, I'm pretty upset that I'm losing settings, game saves, have to re-download apps, etc.
