I purposely don't mvoe old apps over for a reason. They cause more problems
with incompatabilites. Like if you are migrating a 4.5 device to a 5.0 device,
the apps won't work. I think its always better to do a clean install of apps...

DM Device Switch is supposed to also copy over applications I believe.
I use a local install of BES manager to do my activations. I only use DM (and a
specific mapi) to restore things that are missed and wanted by the user, like
old calendar entries.

Again, why? BES stores all the information on the server. The only thing I
use DM for is the activation for larger mailboxes that take too long to
activate OTA

We use Desktop Manager and use the 'Device Switch Wizard', then we go to
'Backup and Restore', select Advance and delete from the new device all the
contacts, calender and task, then do a BES reactivation.
Then wipe the old device and give it out to another user.

The execs are getting the newer BOLD devices and turning theirs in so another
staff person can get the older device.
I would like to be able to hand the VP a new BOLD with some of their old setup
intact – like having their password carry over and any BIS setup carryover to
the new BOLD from old 8800. Is it possible?
I think I’d have to use the first option I stated below for this to happen for
the BOLD.
For the 8800, a new user would be activated. So, I get the fact I wouldn’t have
to wipe it – an activation would take care of it.

Why even wipe the old one until it was necessary to clean it off? Once you
activate the new one with the carrier its as good as gone as far as bes is
concerned.

I think there are 2 ways to do it:
1) Wipe old HH device but leave BES user setup activate new device
2) Delete user from BES and re-create user activate new device
Which way is considered Best Practice?
