XP to Vista backup tool

As you can remember, there was a tool in XP to backup the info and copy it from one XP to another.

Microsoft is releasing a similar tool to backup up your information, and thus transfer it to your Windows Vista installation.
The intention of this, is public to adopt Windows Vista much earlier.

The "Windows Easy Transfer Companion", as they called it, will let you transfer the info (applications, settings, emails, address books and more) from your XP installation to your Vista using a cable or a network.
