    In anticipation for the iPhone launch day, Verizon has released their VZ Transfer App, only for Verizon iPhones, to the iTunes store. It transfers contacts from older VZ phones via Verizon’s Backup Assistant, a service that lets users backup their data to the cloud. The transfer service will authorize the cloud download via a code sent through SMS to a Verizon mobile number. Thanks ahead of time, Verizon, we all know how painful contact migration can be.
