MotoMaker scores iPhone transfer tool, ships Moto X with your data inside

Transferring contacts and data to a new phone is always a pain, but Motorola is trying to make the process a little easier. Now, users can order a new Moto X with their existing contacts baked into the phone before it ships, thanks to MotoMaker's new Migrate tool. The migration helper pops up at the end of the program's Moto X design process, and copies your iCloud data to Google. Unfortunately, the tool can only bring over contacts and calendar entries at this point, but Motorola plans to develop it further. According to the company, it should take around five minutes to port up to 500 contacts and 500 calendar entries. It'll take a little longer if you have an inordinately large contact list, but hey, at least you won't have to start from scratch.
