Default Backing up 9800 and then transfering Data to new 9800.

Ok got tired of my camera/speaker not working and my phone going black. AT&T is sending me another handset in two days. Everything that is on my Torch including contacts and messages, can that be saved then transfered to my new handset since it is Torch as well??? Last BB I had was the Bold 9700 (which was pretty much the best phone I ever had) on T-Mobile so I started new with Torch.

Use the Switch Devices function within DM. It will bring everything over. Make sure you do an extra backup and transfer any pictures, videos and custom ring tones, etc, to your pc before the swap.

I don't know about other phone manufacturers, but the device switch is one of the really nice features that BlackBerry offers.
