Hi all, boss has an iPhone 4 which has never been updated or connected to his computer.

I'm just wondering what the easiest way to backup all his data is etc? He doesnt have iCloud on his iPhone as its old iPhone software.

Will I be OK to update his iPhone 4 to iOS6 to set up iCloud (so he can just bang the 4S on and use iCloud to restore everything) or will it completely delete everything on it when it updates to iOS6?

Or is there another way to do it? He doesnt want to lose all his pictures and contacts and what not.
 
Expanding on the above.

1. Connect to PC, right click on iPhone in iTunes and hit Backup
2. Wait a year whilst it does it as never been done before
3. Get new phone and start setting it up. Choose "Restore from backup" and it will do so from the one just made
