happy upgrade to a brand new Samsung Focus S - migrating your applications

As today ATT released the new Samsung Focus S Windows Phone, a huge lineup was seen at many stores.

Unfortunately, I realised it too late to get to the closest store - so I had to drive a bit further and get my hands on a brand new phone. But hey..I have it and I am truly impressed with it.

 

 

The ATT store was very supportive on moving over SimCard, providing assistance with setup of my liveID (like I needed that ...), and once i gotten home it was
just a matter of installing my favorite apps onto the new phone.

As soon as I added the liveID of the new phone, the phone showed up under my profile on www.windowsphone.com

Right after I logged in, I clicked to My Phone | Account and reviewed the purchased apps history.

A click on Reinstall | Download App to Phone Immediately got me right to installing the application directly on the phone.

What I really liked there is that I could actually review which applications I purchased, and which ones I decided to reinstall (nice cleanup ...).

 

 

I am honestly pleased by the quality of the phone, how easy it was to connect it again with my bluetooth devices.
The display is significantly larger, and phone is much lighter than the Samsung Focus that is now happy to transition with 32Gb microSD to my wife.
