I'm not actually sure how that worked with the iPhone because I never had the chance to transfer data to it from another phone, or to another phone from the iPhone, and once I dumped it, I didn't feel the need to revisit anything about it.
That is the difference between an "Open system" and a proprietary one. With Apple it would work great as long as you buy an Apple. With Android you have choices between half a dozen really good manufactures who all compete on features and price. Move to a different manufacture and just log in with your Gmail / android account and boom. Everything is there, all your apps you bought work, etc...
This is what Apple isn't understanding and it will be its down fall unless they do something. Competition breeds innovation. A closed market along with the bad law suit press (warranted or not) has bred discontent in the apple market. Fan boys on either side (Apple, Google, Microslop) wont change, but there are many who simply don't give a shit/ they just want to coolest thing and/or a phone that works.
