MS purchased the company that sold application moving program "Aloha Bob PC Relocator" 
and has plans to offer an updated version of it as a renamed MS utility.  This utility 
will be available for download sometime around the official launch date of Vista, 
and will be available as a Windows Genuine Advantage "perk."

The idea is to allow XP users to move their programs as well as their data.  The 
File and Settings Transfer wizard in XP only moves files and settings, and is a bit 
clumsy.  The new utility is expected to be much more capable.

But as 666 posted, not every app will make the move to Vista willingly.  I'm sure 
some will have to be reinstalled the old fashioned way.
