I immediately hard-reset the phone to preserve their privacy. I suggest just synching contacts etc with ActiveSync and installing the Apps into the new phone (the hard way) as restoring your backup with SPB might copy over errors from the old phone and create new ones.
I agree with this. You should install everything the hard way the first time you use your new phone. Once you get the basic apps installed/configured, use SPB Backup to make a Full Backup of your phone. That way, if you run into problems, you can Hard Reset, load the backup and your phone will be right back to the way it was when you backed up.
