I guess you could restore your contacts.... not sure about the apps, though.... since the n-gage is new, just try it.... the worst that could happen is you having to do a hard reset to the phone... =P

I haven't tried this myself (and if you do, the responsibility is also yours), but if you have a PC Suite backup made from the 3650, then you could try doing a backup of the N-Gage with its version of PC Suite, and then hunt down the backup .dat file that contains Contacts.cdb, and replace that backup .dat file with the corresponding one from the 3650 backup & then restore the N-Gage backup to the N-Gage.

This assumes that there has been no changes in the PC Suite backup file formats, and no changes in the Contacts.cdb file format.
